Dear Chuck,

If we have no path defined (path=) , there are two networks starting
Tomcat will deploy an application (either a 'app.war' file or 'app'
directory) if it finds it in the Host's configured appBase directory.
The 'appBase' is not the same an Apache HTTPD DocumentRoot directory.

Probably because Tomcat is deploying one instance as the ROOT
application, because you have configured the Context definition and once
for the MyNetwork directory it finds in the appBase.
we can access the page by http://cntest2.de/ - and get redirected to
http://cntest2.de/login.html.
If we define the path like path=/MyNetwork.
Host name=cntest2.de appBase=webapps
unpackWARs=true autoDeploy=true
xmlValidation=false xmlNamespaceAware=true
Context path=/MyNetwork
docBase=/usr/share/tomcat6/webapps/MyNetwork
reloadable=true allowLinking=true /
/Host
And starts only one network:
As Chuck tried to tell you. Do NOT define the Context in server.xml.
Please just completely remove all Context definitions from server.xml.

The page http://cntest2.de/MyNetwork/login.html works fine.
But if we go to the page http://cntest2.de/ the index.html from ROOT is
showing.
So now we did what you said and copied the MyNetwork content (subfolder
and files) to the ROOT directory. Then we see the loginpage of MyNetwork
as expected. But now if we try to login we get URL-redirected to:
The ROOT directory is actually an application, you may have corrupted
the application by just copying over the content. It would be better to
have renamed your MyNetwork directory to become the ROOT directory.
http://cntest2.de/pages/#{subUserSessionUtil.startPageAddress}
(See below)
There is no error shown in the catalina.out, but the
#{subUserSessionUtil.startPageAddress} looks like an uninterpreted
handler call. That works if we access
the network with http://cntest2.de:8080/MyNetwork/login.html. The goal
is to access the network by its configured URL-pattern -
http://cntest2.de/login.html
(and do login etc.)
The question: how can we adjust the server.xml and work with url
http://cntest2.de/login.html , not with
http://cntest2.de/MyNetwork/login.html ?
As above. Completely remove the Context definition from server.xml.

*Never* map an HTTPD DocumentRoot to the same directory as a Tomcat.
It is a security risk and it will almost certainly result in your
application serving files that are not properly processed by Tomcat.

Why use HTTPD to serve these files? Tomcat can do the job perfectly well.
If you must use HTTPD with Tomcat, arrange the directory structures so
that the two servers do not serve files from the same directory, like this:
/sites/www.foo.com/static
/sites/www.foo.com/static/images
/sites/www.foo.com/webapps/
/sites/www.foo.com/webapps/ROOT
/sites/www.foo.com/webapps/MyApplication
In httpd.conf
DocumentRoot /sites/www.foo.com/static
In server.xml:
Host name=www.foo.com appBase=/sites/www.foo.com/webapps ...

I would like to start my application without localhost,
only with virtiual host.
All Host elements are virtual. The name localhost in the Engine and
one Host element has nothing to do with 127.0.0.1, but rather it simply
links the Engine to the default Host. You must always have one
default Host, but it can be any of your Host elements.
Host name=mmmtest.ch
unpackWARs=true autoDeploy=true
xmlValidation=false xmlNamespaceAware=true
Aliasmmmtest.ch/Alias
You're missing the appBase attribute; the value for that should be unique
for each Host.
That's a pointless Alias, since it's the same as the name attribute.
Context path=
docBase=c:/temp_mmm/apache-tomcat-6.0.29/webapps/examples
reloadable=true allowLinking=true
/Context
It's extremely bad practice to put Context elements in server.xml, and
very dangerous to share webapps across multiple Host elements.
The tomcatmanager is reachable on:
http://mmmtest.ch:8080/manager/html.
Only because both Host elements are sharing appBase - a really bad idea.

Another useless Alias.
