Using the Tomcat Administration Tool

[Chris Trobridge]

I've been trying to use this to set up multiple Host entries.

I started off with Tomat V5.09 but get the following response if I click 
on the existing host:

  HTTP Status 500 - Error retrieving attribute liveDeploy

I get a similar message if I try to create a new host - just that it 
fails to set the attribute.  I looked around for an answer but the best 
I can find is that this (and another) attribute were renamed a few 
revisions back and my guess is that the administration tool is lagging 
Tomcat right now.

I then tried the latest V4.1 release (4.1.27)  and had some limited the 
success.  I could get different domains directed at different 
subdirectories of webapps by setting each host location to "webapps" and 
the contexts "app1", "app2" etc.  However, every now and again the 
administrator would place all the default contexts (admin, examples etc) 
under each of my host entries...  I have no idea about why this happens 
but it would let me delete all these contexts so I'd usually reinstall 
at this point.

Any ideas about my host problems?

My instinct at the moment is to stick with 5.09 and ignore 
administration tool, despite the temptation.

Thanks
Chris
