You can write small batch scripts that change the value of CATALINA_BASE and then start the server. -- Tim Moore / Blackboard Inc. / Software Engineer 1899 L Street, NW / 5th Floor / Washington, DC 20036 Phone 202-463-4860 ext. 258 / Fax 202-463-4863 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Configuring Tomcat to start with different verisons of a Web App
Why not have 3 different web apps context1, context2, context3 and run them all in the same container? -Original Message- From: Scott Goldstein [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 07 October, 2002 12:52 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Configuring Tomcat to start with different verisons of a Web App At any one time, I have multiple versions of a product that I'm working on on my development box.

Re: Configuring Tomcat to start with different verisons of a Web App
Hi Scott, you could simply have 3 Tomcats, e.g. .../tomcat1, .../tomcat2, .../tomcat3. All you need is to have 3 icons linked to the right startup script. If you run only one at a time it will work fine.
