[[jetty-env-xml]]
=== `jetty-env.xml`

`jetty-env.xml` is an optional Jetty file that configures JNDI resources for an individual webapp.
The format of `jetty-env.xml` is the same as xref:jetty-xml-config[] –it is an XML mapping of the Jetty API.

When Jetty deploys a web application, it automatically looks for a file called ` WEB-INF/jetty-env.xml` within the web application (or WAR), and sets up the webapp naming environment so that naming references in the `WEB-INF/web.xml` file can be resolved from the information provided in the `WEB-INF/jetty-env.xml` and xref:jetty-xml-config[] files.
You define global naming resources on the server via `jetty.xml`.

[[jetty-env-root-element]]
==== `jetty-env.xml` Root Element

Jetty applies `jetty-env.xml` on a per-webapp basis, and configures an instance of `org.eclipse.jetty.webapp.WebAppContext.`

____
[CAUTION]
Make sure you are applying the configuration to an instance of the proper class. `jetty-env.xml` configures an instance of WebAppContext, and not an instance of Server.
