Re: replacing ROOT
As ever, if you have a simple test case that reproduces this issue then please create a bugzilla item and it will be investigated.

Re: replacing ROOT
This reminds me that we've been having a lot of issues with Tomcat caching (refusing to recompile) changed JSP files. Not sure if there's a bug on it, but it stinks having to restart the whole container sometimes, just for a small JSP change. This problem seems to have gotten worse if anything in Tomcat 5.0.x. See the documentation for the 'reloadable' Context attribute: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/context.html Reloading is switched off by default, because it's not a feature you want to use with production servers. The documentation also mentions that you can - as an alternative - use the Manager web application to conveniently trigger reloads 'on demand'.

replacing ROOT
Hi! I'm probably just stupid but I fail to replace the ROOT-context with my own application. I've tried to put path=/ and path= but nothing of those override the default ROOT-context. I've also seen in server.xml that the part that would define ROOT is commented out. This is tomcat 4.1.31. Any ideas? -- Andreas Andersson IT Dept.

RE: replacing ROOT
Hello, In server.xml just comment original root context entry, and write your new context. Eg.- Original Entry - !--Context path= docBase=webapps/ROOT debug=0 reloadable=true /Context-- New Entry - Context path=/ docBase=physical path for source files debug=0 reloadable=true /Context -- Rajesh Bagade -Original Message- From: Andreas Andersson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 23, 2005 3:31 PM To: tomcat-user@jakarta.apache.org Subject: replacing ROOT Hi!

Re: replacing ROOT
Comments in xml can start anywhere on or above the line you want commented out and end anywhere after. New lines are treated as whitespace and have no meaning when parsed. !-- Context ../Context -- is just as valid as !-- Context/Context -- Comments can't be nested, but that's a whole different ball of wax. --David Rajesh Bagade wrote: Comment for context should start from same line where context line starts.
