Trying 5.0.9, same trouble. I must correct my last message :
Whatever I use in the docBase and workDir properties of Context in Host within server.xml (absolute, relative to appBase or to $CATALINA_HOME, using / or \), I get the IOException. But; suppressing the Context tag in Host within server.xml, and using a context file (conf/Catalina/edevis/foo.xml) the docBase path cannot be absolute, it must be relative to the appBase property of Host within server.xml, and workDir cannot be absolute, it must be relative to $CATALINA_HOME ! Here is my foo.xml : <!-- Context configuration file for the edevis Web App --> <Context path="" docBase="." reloadable="true" debug="0" privileged="true" workDir="../edevis/work"> <Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger" prefix="edevis_default_log." suffix=".txt" timestamp="true"/> </Context> Dom ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Corrigan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Tomcat Users List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, August 21, 2003 7:07 AM Subject: RE: Tomcat 5.0.7 Host default Context docBase > Looks like it is complaining about the path.
