Subject: no webapps or root context tomcat 3.3.1 rpm linux 7.2
Date: Tue, 14 May 2002 09:52:35 +
Hi list,
I found a couple of posts regarding this problem in the archives, but no
fix
or explanation posted that I could find.
I've just installed 3.3.1 on linux 7.2 from the rpm.
My webapps directory is where it should be: /var/tomcat3/webapps, but its
empty.
Therefore I have no root context and although tomcat is up and running and
accepting requests on port 8080 I get 404's on every request.
I installed from the following rpm: tomcat3-3.3.1-4.noarch.rpm
have I got the wrong rpm? or do I need to install the webapps seperately?
everything else is installed fine, all my tomcat directories are where they
should be.
This is what tomcat gives me in the console when I request
http://localhost:8080
2002-05-14 10:00:39 - ContextManager: Assertion failed: container==null (no
Default Context?)
2002-05-14 10:00:39 - Ctx() : Status code:404 request:R( /) msg:null
(BTW: thanks to Henri Gomez for the RPM readme, it was a big help - nothing
I could find in there about this problem though)
Any clues greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Paul

ok, I copied over the ROOT directory from a windows install of tomcat on
another machine and everything seems to be ok, I can create new webapps fine
and the contextx are recognised by tomcat on startup. I'm a little confused
though - was this a problem with the RPM or is there a good reason for not
installing the default context or the admin and example contexts?
apologies if I'm being stoopid, but I can't think of any good reasons for
the RPM not installing at least the ROOT context by default.
cheers, Paul
