Renaming the project should not change Context Path Create a web project hello context path is set to /hello Rename project to HelloApp context path should not be changed to /HelloApp
This is done intentionally (and it works the same way in EE Maven projects). It's simply default path that is used if you are not using any custom context path (if you have different path set, then it of course persist your setting even after refactoring). Do not think we should change this behavior, closing the ticket as WONTFIX
