Re: [base] upgrading BASE without restarting tomcat
Thanks Jari. That might be an option, although we don't have many ports open to the outside world (only 80 and 8080) and would like to stick with 80. I assume your tomcat instances are on separate ports? I haven't tried tomcat 6 yet. Will do so if this matter becomes urgent (at the moment it would just be a luxury). cheers, Bob.

Re: [base] upgrading BASE without restarting tomcat
Thanks, I hadn't thought of doing it that way. We'll probably switch to apache/tomcat connector in the future and then it will be a good solution as long as we don't run out of memory. cheers, Bob. Jari Häkkinen writes: You only need port 80 (I think, see more below), the different servers are connected through different directories: http://base2.thep.lu.se/demo http://base2.thep.lu.se/base2 To get this going is simply creating a proper apache/tomcat connector configuration, and setting up tomcat. Internally this is done through different port numbers that isn't exposed outside of the server. I do not think the firewall interferes with these ports (need to be checked).

We have also tested the Tomcat manager (a long time ago) and found that it didn't work vere well and that is why our instructions say that you should restart Tomcat. I don't remember the exact error messages we had, but they were not always the same. I think this is a problem with Tomcat. Maybe Tomcat 6 is better at this. I am closing your ticket as invalid. /Nicklas - Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
