Migrating to Tomcat10 from 8.5. Getting 404 not found for static files

Question

Upgrading from Tomcat 8.5 to 10.1. I used server.xml from 10.1 install. Just added a context for the root path /

  <Host name="localhost"  appBase="webapps"
        unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true">
        
        <Context path="" docBase="[path]" reloadable="true" override="true">
        </Context>


    <!-- SingleSignOn valve, share authentication between web applications
         Documentation at: /docs/config/valve.html -->
    <!--
    <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.authenticator.SingleSignOn" />
    -->

    <!-- Access log processes all example.
         Documentation at: /docs/config/valve.html
         Note: The pattern used is equivalent to using pattern="common" -->
    <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve" directory="logs"
           prefix="localhost_access_log" suffix=".txt"
           pattern="%h %l %u %t &quot;%r&quot; %s %b" />

  </Host>
</Engine>

http://localhost:8080 or http://localhost:8080/index.html

gets and error

HTTP Status 404 – Not Found
Type Status Report>

Message The requested resource [/index.html] is not available Description The origin server did not find a current representation for the target resource or is not willing to disclose that one exists.

Apache Tomcat/10.1.7

`

At first I tried using sever.xml from ver 8.5.

I uninstalled Tomcat and added just the <Context> directive. Still getting 404. What am I missing?

Java is jdk-19
