Antwort: Re: Multiple virtual host with individual webapp dirs , one tomcat

[Stefan . Raschke]

Hi Will,

the problem is, that when I put directories or .war files in webapps, the
context is added to
all virtual hosts. But I need individual contexts for each virtual host.

Any ideas?

Thanks

stefan

If you want to *change* the code in a context, you can do this just by
adding the new class files under the WEB-INF directory.

If you want to add a *new* context that didn't already exist, you have to
edit the server.xml file.

One other option is to have the developers jar up the whole application
and deploy it to TOMCAT_HOME/webapps as a .war file.

Then, no changes are needed to server.xml; tomcat just reads and expands
the .war file and runs with it.  Never did this, not sure how well it
works.
