Hi David,

I wrote a tutorial on Tomcat here : http://cymulacrum.net/writings/tomcat5/book1.html

Hope this helps.

I'm confused over terminology.

The 'root' application seems to reside at ${catalina.home}/webapps/ROOT
Logically then (with a tree analogy)
 other web apps would reside within that directory?
 Some of the documentation seems to imply they should
 be in ${catalina.home}/webapps/myapp, for instance.
 I.e. all reside directly beneath ${catalina.home}/webapps/

If there are alternatives, where is it specified please?
From //tomcat-docs/config/host.html#Automatic%20Application%20Deployment

"Any XML file in the $CATALINA_HOME/conf/[engine_name]/[host_name] directory is assumed to contain a Context element (and its associated subelements) for a single web application. The docBase attribute of this <Context> element will typically be the absolute pathname to a web application directory, or the absolute pathname of a web application archive (WAR) file (which will not be expanded)."

Which implies that *where* they should be is quite flexible,
but I'm unsure?


Regards DaveP.
