> JBoss 4.0.3SP1 admin guide claims that
> "When a WAR file is deployed, it is associated by default with the virtual host whose name matches the defaultHost attribute of the containing Engine."
> This is false, and thus default WAR deployments are broken when there is no host named "localhost" -- or even if there is such virtual host, but WARs should not be deployed there by default.
> It seems that, regardless of what Hosts are configured, and what the defaultHost is, if WAR does not have a jboss-web descriptor that specifies the virtual host, the WAR always deploys to "localhost". If there is no Host with that name configured, the WAR is inaccessible.
