Hi,
it's time to deploy my first tapestry app and even though I've done some googling, I ran into a problem I haven't seen on previous instalations on intranets.
The problem seems to be the environment.
My target environment: - a remote server - vanilla tomcat 5.5.7 (no tapestry jars in either shared/lib or common/lib) - /home/myusername/public_html/ application folder - no manager app - no access to server.xml or the CATALINA_HOME/webapps folder
My development environment: - my workstation - tomcat 5.5.7 with tapestry, ognl and jars in CATALINA_HOME/shared/lib - X:\whatever\appname\ application folder - manager app - r/w access to server.xml and CATALINA_HOME/webapps - I'm using server.xml
My application doesn't have anything in it's context directory: just WEB-INF and some css: all the .html, .page and the web.xml files are in WEB-INF. I don't know why this works on my devel machine, but it works.
What I'd like to know is:
- how do I let tomcat know that the application is there (/home/myusername/public_html)?
- must I ask the admin to place the tapestry jars in shared/lib or can I used the ones I bundle in WEB-INF/classes/lib?
- if I bundle my app in a .war file, what's the minimum I must do in order to deploy the app that way?
I don't know where to start with questions, actualy. :(
At which URL will the app be available when it's online? Is web.xml used to let tomcat know where the app is and if so, how? Do I need to set a class path or other env settings? Questions, questions, questions...
Thanks in advance, Tomislav
