Hello,
that not really correct - see the german centaurus-platform http:/centaurus.sf.net/. We have build a little
tool hostcreator do to create host at runtime. You can build a new host with a template at runtime. Wait a week
than we release the 1.0beta6 with a integrated management application. Currently we build the Centaurus-Platform
with Tomcat 5.0.27 with some small modifcations.
One bad point: We have wrote the complete documentation at german language. :-) Sorry....
Removing is a really problem. The internal JMX Api support a remove Host at memory but the config still exists at server.xml.
After restart your server the host is also restarted.
We hack the server.xml with a little some XSLT things, but we don't delete directories or files.
I hope we can discuss and implement a better way for tomcat 5.5. :-)
regards Peter

Hi,
Our web department is thinking about moving from coldfusion to tomcat. Currently we have about 400 websites using apache's mod_vhost module. This works great. The only thing one needs to do is create a new directory www.bla.nl and the website is up and running.
How would one do this in tomcat? I figured putting all the domainnames in server.xml is not an option since it would require restarting tomcat all the time. Using one Engine with a Context for each website seems more usable.
Does anybody here have this kind of setup? Any pitfalls we might run
into? Suggestions?
Dynamic aadd/remove of hosts isn't supported through any tool at the moment (= you have to build some kind of front end webapp and use the Tomcat API to do it). I plan to add this in a future Tomcat 5.5 build.
