Hi there Craig, I've been attempting to set up Tomcat 4.0 b1 for my own use, and I've found I have a bit of an issue with the way that it handles the "current directory". Usually I like to install a servlet container once and have multiple configurations for it set up in different directories (e.g. a server.xml and some webapps - I need this to work with our version control system). To do this I like to rely on the current directory to find the various config files. However, catalina sets the effective current directory for the -config option (and some other things, by the look) to CATALINA_HOME, which kind of breaks this way of doing things. This presumably means I would have to hard code full path names to the conf file, and from there to all the webapp dirs, etc. Unfortunatelty this is incompatible with our VC system which creates working dirs with a different name each time... Is there a good reason that catalina can't use the user's current directory as the base for relative paths? Perhaps even check for a file in the users current dir and _then_ check for the file in CATALINA_HOME? If you think it's not likely to cause problems I could probably do a patch... cheers Geoff --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
