I got it working! but with some hacking...
by modifing the Tomcat source code file
"com.apache.tomcat.context.ContextManager.java":
Where "*" is the code added. I had to hard code the default path
"http://localhost" to "e:\\wwwroot" by getting the default context and
change the DocBase to my physical path. The default path was
"C:\SoftwaresInstalled\jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1\webapps\ROOT".
There's should be a configuration file that JBoss load for Tomcat so hard
code won't be needed.
Now I can browse to http://localhost and it'll serve the files from
e:\wwwroot. ========================================================
public void initContext( Context ctx ) throws TomcatException {
ContextInterceptor cI[]=getContextInterceptors();
for( int i=0; i< cI.length; i++ ) {
cI[i].contextInit( ctx );
}
* Context cctx = this.getContext("");
* cctx.setContextManager(this);
* cctx.setDocBase("e:\\wwwroot");
* cctx.setPath("");
* this.addContext(cctx);
}
==========================================================
