Just to make sure I understand you correctly. You mean I create a
context file like this
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<Context path="/stundenplan"
docBase="/home/michael/workspace/tomtest/build">
</Context>
copy it to $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost/tomtest.xml and wait
for Tomcat to pick it up?
Or do you mean an Ant target like this?
<target name="tomcat.install" depends="compile"
description="Install application to servlet container">
<deploy url="${manager.url}"
username="${manager.username}"
password="${manager.password}"
path="/${app.name}"
config="file://${etc}/context-local.xml" />
</target>
It doesn't work, though, as one of war, localWar, or tag is required.
When I give a localWar, it is copied to $CATALINE_HOME/webapps, but not
really used (and not needed) as the docBase entry in the context config
file points somewhere else.
