I'm trying to use the ant autodeploy feature with a context.xml fragment in the MET-INF directory. Mailing lists and all the documentation I've read show this to be a no-brainer. I'm sure I'm being ignorant of something incredibly obvious, but I just can't see it.
I'm using the basic build.xml file from the Tomcat site. I'm using Tomcat version 5.0.16 In the source directory I have Build Dist Docs Src Web Under web I have META-INF Templates WEB-INF In META-INF I have a context.xml fragment (contents included below). When I do a build, I see that the META-INF directory and the context.xml file gets copied the build directory. But when I do an ant deploy, it does create an xml file in the Catalina conf directory (name of the file when copied is the name of the web app, not context.xml). However, the contents of the this file do not contain the specific configuration information I put in context.xml. In summary, it does not appear as though the deploy task is using my context.xml file when it does the install/deploy. Ideas? Many thanks in advance ..
