As I said in my previous post, I gave up using tomcat ant task to deploy my app on production box due to the difficulty of granting permission to war. If you don't start tomcat -security, catalina ant tasks are still the easiest way to go.
My lesson learnt from using Catalina tasks is, most of the errors are caused by wrong path= and/or war=. Following suggestions are based on linux - install: path="${your.app.path}" war="file:/${your.unpacked.dir.containing.your.webapp}" or war="jar:file:/${your.dir.containing.war}/${your.war}!/" - remove: only works if you've "install"ed before path="${your.app.path}" - reload path="${your.app.path}" Other comments: Theoretically, correct me if I am wrong, if I install my webapp from my local dev box to remote server, install task will lock your local dir as in-use on win32 box. -----Original Message----- From: Raible, Matt [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: June 24, 2003 6:19 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Tomcat's Ant Tasks I'm having trouble using Tomcat's Ant Tasks. I've written up a wiki page on how I'm using them and the problems I'm experiencing. Any help is appreciated. http://raibledesigns.com/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=TomcatAntTasks Thanks, Matt --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
