title: Deploy several webapps configured as Root in a same instance of Tomcat
body: <p>I have about 6 or 7 webapps which are configured to be deployed as the root app on Tomcat (6). So, each app can be later accessed by <a href="http://host:8080/" rel="nofollow">http://host:8080/</a></p>
  
  <p>I have to deploy these webapps in one computer for a QA environment. The team commented about using one instance of Tomcat, and deploy each webapp on a different port, so they would still be deployed as the root application.</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions as to how to do this and what the best approach is?</p>
