Re: how to access JSPs using servername/~username
No, see http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/deployer-howto.html There is a feature that allows you to set context configuration inside a WAR file. [by creating a META-INF/context.xml file. ] Whether this would work with userdirs too , I don't know (and have not tested) -Tim Nikola Milutinovic wrote: Tim Funk wrote: ~user/public_html/META-INF/context.xml might do the trick.

RE: how to access JSPs using servername/~username
No this is not true http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/host.html Its says ... == Many web servers can automatically map a request URI starting with a tilde character (~) and a username to a directory (commonly named public_html) in that user's home directory on the server. You can accomplish the same thing in Catalina by using a special Listener element like this (on a Unix system that uses the /etc/passwd file to identify valid users): Host name=localhost ... ... Listener className=org.apache.catalina.startup.UserConfig directoryName=public_html userClass=org.apache.catalina.startup.PasswdUserDatabase/ ... /Host On a server where /etc/passwd is not in use, you can request Catalina to consider all directories found in a specified base directory (such as c:\Homes in this example) to be considered user home directories for the purposes of this directive: Host name=localhost ... ... Listener className=org.apache.catalina.startup.UserConfig directoryName=public_html homeBase=c:\Homes userClass=org.apache.catalina.startup.HomesUserDatabase/ ... /Host If a user home directory has been set up for a user named craigmcc, then its contents will be visible from a client browser by making a request to a URL like: http://www.mycompany.com:8080/~craigmcc == -Original Message- From: Nikola Milutinovic [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 12 May 2005 12:47 To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: how to access JSPs using servername/~username Akhthar Parvez.
