Tomcat Contexts are configured in server.xml
If docBase is a relative path it points to a sub-directory of tomcat/webapps
If you want to have your application directory somewhere else you need to use an absolute pathname for docBase.


The docBase directory should contain the following subdirectories:

# Application java classes dir
WEB-INF/classes
# Application jar/zip files dir
WEB-INF/lib

server.xml Context examples:

<Context path="/examples" docBase="examples" ... >
...
</Context>

<Context path="/myapp" docBase="/path/to/myapp" debug="0" reloadable="true" crossContext="true" />

See http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/config/context.html

So if you want to use in your own servlet, either create a new Context and Directory
or put it somewhere in tomcat/webapps/examples/

Hi All,

I have Tomcat installed and running. I'm trying to get it to "see"
a test sevlet but it can't seem to find it. I started looking at the
example code that comes with the 4.1.24 release. I can call
the HelloWorldExample servlet from my html code and it executes
fine. I went through all of the configuration (.xml) files to see how
this works and couldn't find "HelloWorldExample" anywhere.
I assumed I entered my servlet in my web.xml incorrectly but
now I'm confused since I can't find the example servlet in
a .xml file. Can anyone shed some light?

Thanks much ...

Jeff

Hi,
Where can I find information about Context? Currently I am using Sun ONE studio to assign context to a web application. But, how to assign a context to a web application manually? From the list, I found that by using <Context> element we can achieve that, but I am using Tomcat4.1.24 bundled with Jboss3.2.1.
Please help me!! Thanks in advance.
