Howdy, You can have a context for common static resources, or you could have copies of these static resources with every webapp (on the assumption that disk space is cheap and you're not working on some mobile/j2me platform). If you see a need in the future to independently upgrade/restart/maintain the applications, then it's probably better to do one of the above instead of putting them all in one tomcat context.

Hi,
We have a 'suite' of applications that are all deployed under one context in Tomcat. They are related applications, and share some
common
java code, the odd jpeg/gif, css files and (external) configuration files. However, as running applications, they do not interact with
each
other in any way - no one application relies on the existence of any
other.
My first thought was that these applications should have all been deployed under separate tomcat contexts, so that they could be deployed independently and using the application manager, could be brought up
and
down independently for maintenance and upgrades etc. BUT as they do share non-java files as described above, is this the right approach? Should we leave things as they are or is there a better way to organise them as separate tomcat contexts??
Thanks for any pointers.
Andrew Waters.
