Hello, I am running Tomcat 4.1.31 at work (dev) and I have a 5.0.28 at home. I have been working with Tomcat for quite some time, and ran into a problem trying to set up a webapp. At work on my 4.1.31, when create a new web-app, I edit the server.xml file and add my Context (see context below) Anyway when I edit the server.xml on my 5.0.28 I noticed there is no "example Context" in which to copy, edit and duplicate. That is how I have always done it. Upon reading the docs, it looks like a lot is controlled by web front end. Am I correct on this? And if so, where and how do I edit to add Loggers, and Resources, etc to it? Or can I just add a new Context somewhere in the server.xml like I used to, and if so where in that file (I couldn't find a DTD for server.xml). I get a feeling from the list that I should stay current, but I am having trouble understanding the current setups, etc. Thanks for any input. Sincerely Scott <Context path="/builder" docBase="builder" debug="5" reloadable="true" crossContext="true"> <Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger" prefix="localhost_builder_log." suffix=".txt" timestamp="true"/>
