I am not sure whether my information can help you but just today I have done similar action with upload.war from www.oreilly.com
By the way I am running standalone tomcat 4.0.4 on SuSE Linux 7.3 (Apache 1.3.20) So I did everything in the next order: 1) Put upload.war to webapps folder 2) from the manager window made http://localhost:8080/manager/install?path=/upload&war=jar:file:/path/to/upload.war!/ Here it has created folder with name "upload" itself and expanded file upload.war there 3) then I rebooted my tomcat and how it has been already said on this list the application upload has disappeared but folder upload with it's context remained in webapp 4) manually edited the server.xml file, add there something like <Context path="/upload" crossContext="true" docBase="upload" override="true" reloadable="true" debug="3"> </Context> 5) rebooted TC and the application upload runs perfectly May be this can help you ilis On Tuesday 16 July 2002 16:18, you wrote: > I haven't been able to get that functionality to work myself :-( I > think that's a long-standing TC "bug" you're running into.
