First, QM, about the work/ dir, too late. Already
doing it. Doesn't seem to be causing any problems.
Thanks for the warning tho...
Second, I figured out what I was doing wrong in the
tomcat 5 workaround I was experimenting with. If I
would have just read the stupid logs after the tomcat
restart, I would have noticed the error was:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Document base
/srv/stuff does not exist or is not a readable
directory
So i just changed the docBase attribute in the Context
element to simply "stuff" instead of "/srv/stuff". The
application reloads with tomcat nicely.
This still seems like a hack to me, always having to
use the html manager interface. So if anyone knows of
a better way, I would love to hear it.
Thanks,
Dustin
