The default appBase is "webapps" so do not choose a docBase like "webapps-foo." Doing so will lead to deployment errors: see Bugzilla for details." at <http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/context.html>, in the table, in the row for docBase. Therefore, however this worked in earlier versions, it appears to me to violate the tomcat specs. Time to hack by copying (I dunno if anything references the files under webapps, so I don't want to break anything). mark _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-list
