RE: deploy war file
do you have a context.xml in the war file or the webapps folder? See comments re context xml files in 4th para in page below - the para beginning In addition to nesting Context elements inside a Host element http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/config/context.html -Original Message- From: Scott Purcell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday 01 November 2004 19:42 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: deploy war file Hello, I am using Tomcat 4.1 on Win2000. I have a web application that has been running for a while that has an entry in the server.xml file for reloading etc. Anyway, I am beginning to create a . warfileforthecode,usingant.Ihave read the docs, and it seems easy that one should put the .war file under the webapps directory and restart the server. I do this, but get no luck. The war file is good, I can extract the components from it, and the path structure is good. Am I missing a step? Here is the server.xml for info: Context path=/merchant docBase=merchant debug=0 reloadable=true / and !-- Define the default virtual host -- Host name=localhost debug=0 appBase=webapps unpackWARs=true autoDeploy=true So it looks like the server is configured to extract the merchant.war file?

Re: deploy war file
From: Scott Purcell [EMAIL PROTECTED] Anyway, I am beginning to create a .war file for the code, using ant. I have read the docs, and it seems easy that one should put the .war file under the webapps directory and restart the server. I do this, but get no luck. IME, Tomcat will not auto-expand the .war file if the directory structure already exists. I use the Manager app to remove the existing webapp, (which deletes the .war file and the directory structure,) then deploy the new .war file, which expands and starts. -- Wendy Smoak - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: deploy war file
Thanks Wendy for the response. I have removed the full directory structure under my merchant.jar so (merchant) directory and restarted, but it did not work either. I am not familiar with the manager app, I would like to try that. I looked under programs but do not seen an entry for it. Do I call it from the cmd line?

RE: deploy war file
Go to: http://localhost:8080/manager/html But before you do that, open TOMCAT_HOME/conf/tomcat-users.xml and add a username/password with manager role.

From: Scott Purcell [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have removed the full directory structure under my merchant.jar so (merchant) directory and restarted, but it did not work either. If you stop Tomcat, remove the entire directory structure under webapps, and restart with a .war file present in webapps, it ought to deploy itself, assuming you're configured correctly. I am not familiar with the manager app, I would like to try that. I looked under programs but do not seen an entry for it. Do I call it from the cmd line? I use the Ant tasks on my development machine, and the web interface to deploy to the production server. http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/html-manager-howto.html -- Wendy Smoak - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
