Hello Jacob,

I thing your analyze is not correct.

The problem is:

currently the auto deployment for directories not implement.
Copy a war with META-INF/context.xml at your webapps (host.appbase) dir
the file context.xml was extracted and deployed. Tested with 5.0.25.
see my log
20.06.2004 15:20:16 org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina start
INFO: Server startup in 13259 ms
20.06.2004 15:20:24 org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHostDeployer install
INFO: Processing Context configuration file URL file:D:\tomcat\temp\temp\release
filter\webdev-server\conf\Catalina\localhost\releasefilter.xml


I thing, it was also a usefull feature to implement this for directory deployment.
Easier for some non expert customer or developer ;-)


regards
peter

Hi, I've just upgraded from TC4.1.12 to TC5.0.25.

Everything is OK, but TC evidently ignores my context configuration file
unless I place it directly into 'conf\Catalina\localhost\'.
It is ignored both if placed as 'webapps\my-app\META-INF\context.xml' and as
'webapps\my-app.xml'.


What is wrong? Should I fix some server setting?


Nothing is wrong. The loading of the context configuration files has simply changed between 4.1.xx and 5.0.xx. The appropriate place for the context configuration file (CCF) is conf/[Engine]/[Host]. You can either put it there manually or you can go though the manager interface to deploy an application where either the WAR file has a META-INF/context.xml or you point the to the CCF explicitly. Unfortunately, just dropping the WAR file into webapps won't autodeploy the META-INF/context.xml, so you'll have to put that under the conf directory manually.

Jake
