http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22082 Variable substiturion not working for server.xml Summary: Variable substiturion not working for server.xml Product: Tomcat 4 Version: 4.1.24 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: Other Component: Catalina AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] First off, is this feature deprecated? I can find NO REFERENCE for the life of me in the 4.1 docs for variable substitution, so there is a chance this was changed and not documented anywhere. According to the 3.3 manual, variable substitution SHOULD work: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-3.3-doc/serverxml.html There is no correspnding page in the 4.1 manual (oversight?) so I can not tell if that data is accurate. In order to pass in an environment variable (in my case the bind IP for a developer instance), it would appear one should do: tomcat.sh start -bind.ip=1.2.3.4 However, since 3.3: tomcat.sh is now catalina.sh? there is no support for options past the start argument it appears JAVA_OPTS is now preferred. So I set JAVA_OPTS="-Dbind.ip=1.2.3.4", and verified that declaration was passed to the JVM. No problem there. However, catalina does not respect my server.xml reference to the property: <!-- HTTP 1.1 Listener on port 8080 --> <Connector className="org.apache.coyote.tomcat4.CoyoteConnector" address="${bind.ip}" port="8080" And reports the following in the error log: VM Started: > IntrospectionUtils: Unable to resolve host name:${bind.ip} Aug 7, 2003 8:35:26 AM org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol init This is at the very least a break in documentation since there is no general server.xml reference documnent, and appears to be a bug in the app as well. This is a major pain since now I need to customize each server.xml for each developer and then all are out of sync with CVS.
