Subject: Domain mapping
How do I setup domains for webapplications-mapping in
tomcat5.5?
Why do you want to? It's not normally necessary, unless you want
separate sets of webapps available for each domain. If you do want
segregated webapps, define a Host element in server.xml for each
domain, with a unique appBase attribute for each Host. The webapps
for each domain should be placed in the corresponding appBase.
I can read that there should be defined a context-element in
either META-INF/context.xml or server.xml file, but I find it
very hard to find a working solution or example.
Don't put Context elements in server.xml - that's only there for
compatibility with older levels. The standard Tomcat download includes
numerous sample applications, some with Context elements (they're not
required for simple webapps).
Should i define both host and context
element or... and where?
It's Host and Context - case matters. Read the doc:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/host.html
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/context.html
My hosting operator suggests introducing an Apache for
this purpuse, which I believe is quite an overkill.
By Apache, I'll presume you mean httpd, since Tomcat is also an Apache
product. Yes, it is overkill, and will do little for you other than add
overhead.
