Not sure of what you are trying accomplish, but here is some info that might help.
You must have an Apache alias setup in order for you to access http://localhost/sambashare. This seems to be the case. However, when you are trying to do http://localhost:8080/sambashare. Tomcat knows nothing about Apache's aliases. It is expecting a context named sambashare. Tomcat knows nothing about "shares" unless you explicitly tell it. hth On 4/19/06, Goerke, Michael <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, > > I am pretty new to tomcat, and I apologise for possible > misunderstandings. > > I am using successfully on a RHEL (2.4.21-40.Elsmp) Linux box Apache > 2.0.46, Tomcat 5.5.12 and mod_jk 1.2.15, jdk is 1.5.0_05. > > Now I have copied everything onto a Windows share (where users should > deal with their documents), and tried to import the directory tree into > Linux as a read-only share via SAMBA.
