Document URL: 

Section Number and Name: 

Describe the issue: 

The context-root in jboss-web.xml file should be used only when the WAR application is deployed outside the EAR.

If the WAR file deployed inside the EAR then you should define the context-root in application.xml file.

The context-root in application.xml file takes precedence over jboss-web.xml.


Suggestions for improvement:
