Good Afternoon George

I deploy thru Tomcat 5.5.7 Manager where I
Browse to the war I want to deploy and
click deploy and
the webapp is unjar'ed, web.xml has correct entries for all jars and resources etc.. so the web application is installed and configured automatically when you use Tomcat 5.5.7 Manager

Hope this helps,
Martin-

OK, that pointed me in the right direction. The tomcat user did not have
WRITE permissions to the

[enginename] directory.

That now brings up the point that just slays me:

Why in the world does it assume that I want the manager application deployed
to the new host? Who thought that was a good idea?

When I create the new host, it copies manager.xml, and deploys my ROOT
context (which exists in docbase), but doesn't create a ROOT.xml file in the

[enginname]/[hostname]

Directory. Also, it doesn't appear that the host-manager modifies
server.xml, so any aliases or options specified at creation are lost when
the server re-starts.

As it stands, this is pretty useless. It just infuriates me that any time I
point out how bad the admin app is, everyone tells me to use manager, or
host-manager, but they're totally useless as well.

Hello George

Did you try to install manager.xml into
$CATALINA_HOME/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]
