Hello all. I have an Ant build script for an application that stops
Tomcat if it's running, deletes the work folder for the application (so I
can ensure all JSPs get recompiled) and starts Tomcat again. Here's the
two relevant tasks:
<target name="tomcat_cleanup">
<delete dir="${app_base_dir}/../../work/Catalina/localhost/toa" />
</target>
<target name="start_tomcat">
<exec executable="${catalina_home}/bin/startup.bat" os="Windows XP"
spawn="true">
<env key="CATALINA_HOME" value="${catalina_home}" />
</exec>
</target>
app_base_dir is properly defined (I know because the work folder DOES get
deleted) pointing to the root of the webapp, as is cataline_home (because
Tomcat DOES start up). Here's the problem... When I access the first page
on my application (index.jsp in the root of the webapp), I get the
following:
The file or path you specified (..\..\..\\bin\bootstrap.jar) is invalid
relative to C:\tomcat
org.apache.tools.ant.util.FileUtils.resolveFile(FileUtils.java:761)
org.apache.tools.ant.Project.resolveFile(Project.java:1293)
<snip - I'm beting the whole stack trace isn't important>
Anyone have any ideas? Funny thing is, if I manually run startup.bat,
sure enough everything works perfectly as it should. I don't get it.
Thanks all!
