I would have thought some Apache [RewriteRule]s would do the trick. Do you use an Apache web server in front of Tomcat (you seem to suggest so with (c))
Allistair -----Original Message----- From: Alan Honczar [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 23 March 2006 14:06 To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RES: question regarding alias for context Sorry the persistence, but as I still did not found a way of doing that I am reposting and trying to explain myself better. The problem is that my clients are POS based applications and the URL used is fixed. Part of the POSs are pointing to context A and the others to context B because of different app versions (different branches). Now, ctx B is able to receive the old requests that are now for ctx A, but the URL is fixed in the POSs. I have 3 alternatives: a. recall the terminals. (not recommendable) b. substitute the context A with an app that replaces the fixed URL. (implies in lots of burocracy) c. configuring an alias to context B, forcing the old URL to reach ctx B. I tried making Apache redirect the requests of ctxA to the connector of ctxB, but it did not work. TomCat is still loading the classes of ctxA. I´d like TomCat to understand ctxA as ctxB. Please help, and thanks in advance...

I have 2 contexts in my Tomcat 4.1 ctxA and ctxB. My clients access them with full URLs: https://myserver.com/ctxA/page.jsp and https://myserver.com/ctxB/page.jsp Those contexts have different revisions of an application. I´d like to kill the ctxA making the clients access ctxB in a transparent way. I am trying to find a way of removing the webapp ctxA and configure the string "ctxA" as an alias to the context ctxB. Anyone could give me directions? Thank you very much.
