Sorry for using the wrong words, I've a jar inside my /webapps/webapplication/lib, which referes a file say x.xml. If I packed this x.xml with the jar it works, but I wanted that to be modified by others so I put that inside the /webapps/webapplication/. When I access the jsp/servlet I get an error saying x.xml not found.
What can be done for this ? -----Original Message----- From: QM [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 21, 2004 7:14 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Tomcat 4.1.23 On Tue, Sep 21, 2004 at 10:17:11AM +0600, Sudhrasun Ramalingam wrote: : I've a doubt, What is the root directory for a webapp? : And if the answer is $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/<webapp>.. : : Then how can the jar file referring $CATALINA_HOME as root for my web : application? 1/ "root directory" and "document root" are terms that don't 100% apply in the J2EE world. Use the term "context path," because a webapp (context) may exist in a directory or inside a WAR file. So, the context path defaults to one of {value of "appBase"}/{context dir} {value of "appBase"}/{WAR file} where the value of "appBase" defaults to {Tomcat install}/webapps. 2/ $CATALINA_HOME and $CATALINA_BASE are not the root/context/whatever path for your application. -QM -- software -- http://www.brandxdev.net tech news -- http://www.RoarNetworX.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
