Title: RE: Is it possible to include via a directive snippets into the server.xml file Spot on ! Thanks Rob -Original Message- From: Ralph Einfeldt [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 09 August 2002 11:28 To: Tomcat Users List Subject: AW: Is it possible to include via a directive snippets into the server.xml file AFAIK tomcat 4.1 has something like that. (Can't find the pointer to that, but there was a post from Craig about that a while ago in this list) If you have to use 4.0 you could use a preprocessor and an shellscript that create server.xml from seperate files from the two teams: E.g.: conf/server.xml.m4: !-- Everything before the contexts from the infrastructure team -- include('conf/context.xml') !-- Everything after the contexts from the infrastructure team -- conf/context.xml !-- Everything from the development -- bin/htstart: #!/bin/sh JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/java/jdk1.3.1 CATALINA_HOME=/usr/local/java/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.3 CATALINA_BASE=/www/develop/www.tomcat.de export JAVA_HOME CATALINA_HOME CATALINA_BASE cd ${CATALINA_BASE} m4 conf/server.xml.m4 conf/server.xml ${CATALINA_HOME}/bin/startup.sh -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: Horn, Rob [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Gesendet: Freitag, 9.

The overlap centres on server.xml The infrastructure guys need to put host specific information into server.xml The development guys are dependent on a context definition and resources defined within it. My question is therefore ... is it possible to include a snippet for the context that the development team can maintain into the infrastructure maintain server.xml file.

RE: Is it possible to include via a directive snippets into the server.xml file
in Tomcat 4.1.x you can put XML files containing context information into your webapps directory and TC adds them as contexts. this is how the admin and manager apps are added. - Andrew -Original Message- From: Horn, Rob [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, August 09, 2002 5:19 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Is it possible to include via a directive snippets into the server.xml file Within our project we have an overlap of responsibility between the infrastructure team who are responsible for building the application servers and the development team who are responsible for delivering an application ready for deployment.

One approach is to do what Tomcat 4.1 itself does for the admin and manager webapps -- for a context at path /foo, create a foo.xml file. If you put that in $CATALINA_HOME/webapps, it will get auto-deployed.

RE: Is it possible to include via a directive snippets into the server.xml file
actually, I don't believe that the name of the xml file has to be the context name, but don't quote me on that. The important information is the context information within the XML file. From my understanding, you just have to use Context / as your root element, and you can add any sub elements necessary. - Andrew -Original Message- From: Horn, Rob [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, August 09, 2002 10:12 AM To: 'Tomcat Users List' Subject: RE: Is it possible to include via a directive snippets into the server.xml file Thanks Andrew, is there a naming convention that must be followed or do you know where I can get further info on this.
