Hey,

the problem of Tomcat 5.0.x and Context autoreloading is very strange.
Only <Context path="/xx" docBase="xx" reloadable="true" orverride="true" .../> work.
or setup a <DefaultContext reloadable="true" />


The Tomcat 5.0.x context configuration is

a) create a StandardContext and load context.xml file
b) check with the o.a.c.startup.ContextConfig the Engine and Host DefaultContext as Contex.overide=false.
This call installDefaultContext and use the reloadble flag from host or engine.
Host load before Engine.
c) Loads conf/web.xml and WEB-INF/web.xml


Side effect from Context.overide=true is that some elements from defaultcontext setup
not interpreted. (very bad bad bad)


At Tomcat 5.5.x the world is very clear:

a)   Create a StandardContext
b)   Load the context.xml
      global  /conf/context.xml
      host    /conf/<engine>/<host>/context.xml.default
      app /conf/<engine>/<host>/app.xml
c)   Load web.xml with the same procedure at b)
      global  /conf/web.xml
      host    /conf/<engine>/<host>/web.xml.default
      app /webapps/app/WEB-INF/web.xml  or at war app.war!/WEB-INF/web.xml

I find the new 5.5 design/implementation is very good step.

regards
Peter

I think you might mean this?

<Context docBase="... myapp location ..." path="/myapp" reloadable="true">

You can put this line in server.xml (within the standard <Host> tag) or in
context.xml


For more details on <Context> and the reloadable attribute, see (for version
5.0.x):
