Iam not sure whether this wil help u or not. But this is some thing I know and want to share it.
If you want to have more than one contets (i.e run more than one web application from a single tomcat) u can create xml files for each contect and put them in <tomcatHome>/conf/ folder. Say if u have two contexts called WebApp1 and WebApp2, then u can create WebApp1.xml and WebApp2.xml and put them in /conf folder. These xml files will contain the <context> tags that we traditionally used to put in server.xml file hope this helps u some way Regards Srikanth Peddireddy On 9/28/05, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > my problem is that i do not want put anything of my application inside tomcat > configuration files... > Exists context.xml in META-INF that is specific for an application but I can > define there just one context. > I need more than one context. > Hot to do it? > > > ---------- Initial Header ----------- > > From : "Arup Vidyerthy" [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To : "Tomcat Users List" tomcat-user@jakarta.apache.org > Cc : > Date : Wed, 28 Sep 2005 11:27:25 +0100 > Subject : RE: pointing to a folder outside tomcat webapps > > > > > > > > > OK, > > > > You place the context.xml inside $tomcat_home/conf.
