Why do you want to? It's not normally necessary, unless you want separate sets of webapps available for each domain. If you do want segregated webapps, define a <Host> element in server.xml for each domain, with a unique appBase attribute for each <Host>. The webapps for each domain should be placed in the corresponding appBase. > I can read that there should be defined a context-element in > either META-INF/context.xml or server.xml file, but I find it > very hard to find a working solution or example. Don't put <Context> elements in server.xml - that's only there for compatibility with older levels. The standard Tomcat download includes numerous sample applications, some with <Context> elements (they're not required for simple webapps). > Should i define both <host> and <context> > element or... and where? It's <Host> and <Context> - case matters. Read the doc: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/host.html http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/context.html > My hosting operator suggests introducing an Apache for > this purpuse, which I believe is quite an overkill. By "Apache", I'll presume you mean httpd, since Tomcat is also an Apache product. Yes, it is overkill, and will do little for you other than add overhead. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
