Re: virtual mapping on Tomcat 5.5
Hi In Tomcat 5.5.17 webapps itself deployed hence put the RMS under webapps and change the docbase Context path=/images docBase=webapps/RMS debug=0 reloadable=true/Context Regards Raju On 11/30/06, olivier nouguier [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: hi, A: put apache (httpd) in front of tomcat == quite easy.

1. the path attribute of your context definition will be ignored by tomcat 5.5. The webapp itself will be deployed as RMS, not images. 2. Assuming you have an images folder in your RMS webapp and a file named logo.gif exists there, the url http://localhost:8080/RMS/images/logo.gif should work. Check the logs if it's not working. 3.

Re: virtual mapping on Tomcat 5.5
Sorry about the hijack warning. Must have been not enough coffee. So you want to put your resources outside the RMS webapp. I think you have about four options: 1. Put the resources in the ROOT webapp and then refer to them with a url like http://localhost:8080/images/logo.gif 2. If fronting tomcat with apache, store the resources in an apache httpd served directory. Construct URLs that point to them like http://localhost/images/logo.gif. 3. Construct a separate webapp that just contains the essential WEB-INF/web.xml file and your resources. It can be stored outside tomcat's directory with a images.xml in the conf/Catalina/localhost/ like follows: Context docBase=E:/templates/images debug=0 reloadable=true/Context Urls could be constructed similar to #1 above. 4. Build a servlet that can be configured with an absolute path to the resources. Map it to respond to requests for images. You should be able to download the tomcat sources and use the default servlet as a starting point basis for your servlet. In that case you'd be constructing urls like http://localhost:8080/RMS/images/logo.gif --David Jennifer Lu wrote: Hi David, I think I have joined the list as I have received the confirmation on this?
