Re: Problems accessing the admin app

[Erik Weibust]

Stephen,

The admin app is no longer a part of the standard Tomcat download.

You need to go download and install it.  Obviously, you need to make
the appropriate changes to conf/tomcat-users.xml

Re: web app url config question

[Erik Weibust]

Thanks for the quick response Rob.

I saw that but was afraid that was violating some tomcat best practice.

If that is indeed the best way of configing my url then I'll roll with
it.

thx...

issue config'ing a webapp

[Erik Weibust]

I'm having a problem getting a webapp running in my instance of tomcat.
 I have attached all the relevant info below.

What I'm trying to do is use a sym link in a dir that points to a
"generic" version of my app.  That way I can have numerous versions of
that app on my machine and instead of having to edit the server.xml
every time I want to switch from one version of the app to another I
can just change my sym link.  When I do this I get a "Resources start
failed" error in my log files.

Any ideas?  Do I need to provide more info?  Will Tomcat not allow a
sym link in the docBase of a Context element?

Thanks...
Erik

deploy question/problem

[Erik Weibust]

I am having a problem deploying/installing (I think
these words can be used interchangeably) my war file. 
I am copying my war to the webapps directory of my
Tomcat installation (Apache Tomcat/4.1.27).  When I
try to access my simple servlet I get a "The requested
resource (/quiz_servlet/quizpage.html) is not
available." error message.  My war is named
quiz_servlet.war.  I am also including my web.xml.

Thanks,
Erik

Re: tomcat manager servlet

a few more questions.  what about when i restart
tomacat, will the app i installed be present?  or will
i have to re-install it?  if i use deploy instead of
install will this eliminate the problem of
re-installing my app?

i am having problems grasping the differences between

undeploy.  when would someone use install over deploy?
 is the only difference between remove and undeploy
the fact that your files will be removed from the
