Re: Running lots of virtual hosts on tomcat
Hello, that not really correct - see the german centaurus-platform http:/centaurus.sf.net/. We have build a little tool hostcreator do to create host at runtime. You can build a new host with a template at runtime. Wait a week than we release the 1.0beta6 with a integrated management application. Currently we build the Centaurus-Platform with Tomcat 5.0.27 with some small modifcations. One bad point: We have wrote the complete documentation at german language. :-) Sorry Removing is a really problem. The internal JMX Api support a remove Host at memory but the config still exists at server.xml. After restart your server the host is also restarted. We hack the server.xml with a little some XSLT things, but we don't delete directories or files. I hope we can discuss and implement a better way for tomcat 5.5. :-) regards Peter Remy Maucherat schrieb: On Wed, 19 Jan 2005 15:37:30 +0100, Robbert-Jan Roos [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, Our web department is thinking about moving from coldfusion to tomcat.

Dynamic aadd/remove of hosts isn't supported through any tool at the moment (= you have to build some kind of front end webapp and use the Tomcat API to do it).

Re: Running lots of virtual hosts on tomcat
There are a few ways you could handle it.

Re: Running lots of virtual hosts on tomcat
RJ, I think with a filter we can do our own version of mod_vhost. But for reloading the classes/jsps it needs two instances of Tomcat (maybe on the same machine) with a loadbalancer to update one without interrupting the user. Or is the compiler build into Tomcat 5.5 fast enough (and without memory leaks enough) to run it on a production machine. Ronald.
