Hello, I hope everyone is doing well.
I am experiencing two problems with Tomcat and I think they both stem from the same issue.
I have been deploying an application using the tomcat manager by specifying a Contact Path, XML Configuration file URL and a Directory URL. Because I am specifying the directory URL, I do not add a docBase attribute to the Context element in the configuration file.
When I initially deploy the webapp, it works great. Problems arise when I restart tomcat. The first debug statement that catches my eye is:
INFO: Processing Context configuration file URL file:/home/tns/bin/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28/conf/Catalina/localhost/nmmr.xml
The above is the XML Configuration file that I specified in the tomcat manager. It does not specify a docBase. The next debug statement states the the context cannot start:
SEVERE: Error starting static Resources
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Document base /home/tns/bin/tomcat/webapps/nmmr does not exist or is not a readable directory
The document base specified in the log files is NOT the Directory URL I specified in the Tomcat Manager.
If I do not specify an XML Configuration file, one is created that looks like so:
SEVERE: Error starting static Resources
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Document base /home/tns/bin/tomcat/webapps/nmmr does not exist or is not a readable directory
All in all, it seems that tomcat should add the docBase attribute to its local copy of the Configuration file if the directory is specified external to the configuration file.
