Re: Deploy application as Root
Thanks Sergio, I will give this approach a shot for next deployment.

Re: Deploy application as Root
Hi Ognjen, Thanks for information. Let me try this approach. I have another 3 weeks for doing deployment for first piece of second app. Probably I will start another fresh thread for few of my doubts. Thanks and Appreciate your assistance. - Kiran On Fri, Sep 12, 2014 at 3:19 AM, Ognjen Blagojevic ognjen.d.blagoje...@gmail.com wrote: Kiran, Question I have is that if I upload war file via manager app, where does it go ?

You need to create two webapps directories, e.g. webapps-myapp1 and webapps-myapp2, and configure two Host elements in server.xml accordignly, e.g.: Host name=www.myapp1.com appBase=webapps-myapp1 ...

If you want to use Manager application for each of your virtual hosts you need to copy directory webapps/manager/ to both webapps-myapp1/manager/ and webapps-myapp2/manager/. -Ognjen - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org

Re: Deploy application as Root
Ok I made the changes, and trying. Andre, I tried your approach, it still same error.Making changes to server xml now. Pointing appBase to webapps. Question I have is that if I upload war file via manager app, where does it go ? I can understand that ROOT goes to the ROOT folder if I delete the root folder, how about myapp.war ? Does it go to work folder ? Konstantin, I have below version only difference is that localhost is on windows and not working one is on linux.

Re: Deploy application as Root
Ok I fixed this issue. Moved the context tag to context.xml and deployed it as ROOT. Works fine now. However I have another application which I will be deploying in the same tomcat. This will be basically myapp2.war ,so how do I manage this deployment so that whenever someones gives www.myapp2.com, it should open up ? I assume we cannot have 2 root deployment in the same tomcat.
