Seems that many people have been asking how to use Tomcat deployer to deploy a war to a context that contains multi-level path (like /subdir/myapp or /foo/bar/myapp instead of simple /myapp).
After spending a day trying this and that, searching through the mail archive, I found that this feature is not implemented and the corresponding bug request has been marked as "WONT FIX" in March 2005. See http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34057 http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35035 Seems that you can deploy an application to a multi-level context manually by copying context.xml file into $CATALINA_BASE/conf/Catalina/localhost/subdir#myapp.xml and copying the application files into $CATALINA_BASE/webapps/subdir/myapp/. Why can't the deployer do the just that? Did anyone find a workaround? Thanks ps. In any case, this message is just to summarize the response by apache developer Remy Maucherat [EMAIL PROTECTED], since none of the discussions on the user mailing list were answered conclusively. Hopefully a note can be added to the deployer reference manual. -- Nicholas Sushkin, Senior Software Engineer Open Finance, Chelsea Piers Pier 62 Suite 316, New York NY 10011 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
