RTFM. Especially the section in http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/context.html that states: "The value of this field [path] must not be set except when statically defining a Context in server.xml, as it will be infered from the filenames used for either the .xml context file or the docBase." > This makes it impossible to create complex server configurations where > applications are hosted not under the root of the server, in addition to > being > confusing, counter-intuitive and just plain wrong. No, your statement is plain wrong. If you want to set the context path to "/some/path", name the XML file containing the Context definition "some#path.xml". BTW: Just doing a quick glance over Tomcat's documention, I didn't find the latter mentioned. So it might be a good idea to add this to http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/context.html or http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/host.html#Automatic%20Application%20Deployment -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
