    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-6368?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12447560#action_12447560 ] 

drichm commented on JBAS-6368:
------------------------------

We also need this feature re-enabled, or at least something like it.

We have the same WebApp mapped to multiple URLs in order to support legacy applications. Using Context inside of Host is the only way I know of of doing this (i.e. same docBase="X" mapped to many path="...").
