Take a look at the "Advanced" section of RUNNING.txt in any Tomcat distribution's root. It will explain how you can use CATALINA_BASE and CATALINA_HOME environment variables to have a single deployment directory that doesn't (usually) have to change between point-releases (e.g. 7.0.50 -> 7.0.51). It also allows you to install multiple Tomcat versions side-by-side and choose which one to use at launch. This will allow you to install a new version of Tomcat, launch with it, and then easily roll-back to the prior version if you decide that the upgrade is not working for you for some reason. Hope that helps, - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJT/KTVAAoJEBzwKT+lPKRYx/IP/3+IJyjg/lgqAwv1fIvyz8MT uFKPkmOSkq8nsxgnQb12oYRMgOW3bvDOWywdkNV5cfzGm+vbFbPkoqks0C0o/62I I5gXwPoKDye+Jun8p21U2pP2sOAwTxTOJtFeNbX5wZ88uGShvjyLeJnsCaWEQVf7 P2lwZJjxilRB+ElgBzk7tyX0/YM80PINKIi+CZuyoKNGtqZa/jT5tJzQ6p1kFCuv 2/6in1tVZOPJ4bkVqhI0vSErrFrMQhCpFiKIVOw+FXMD0WJTNEs+bEPBG7TTr+7Z SOH/x47tPrA+fco6IKfZcWAMTy26raqS1helA3vb0Shepi0Oa7eIKWG4FCRd5cqv F5cjXAYdf7uL7ue9sFhXCplDoATamkv9fBAGzS7jbl9xKYLsDEXf7dvVuSDa2mk7 KbgUsqy8qWn8sZFKr449wtyJTIoRqYioki+5ZnypujQG/5WF0mdSgORrvVHqBK0b G358Vc0Wtcs5R1JpGCN/SBMPNtfprt3wJITXpNdZSaE8g/qbQxMZnVfjSDAnmb1p BA8n0a0DXcceeZvp6LjrEtchzqVNVxs2vHUJqrTiQKaeqze9ZM8zlQxiFMEcw4x3 OtO6A5Xrfm/+thwX7db8fJIrdMVcJkQiBV1GftkAc5riW6D8utcoZTrx9UA+gSSf 0cIOW4rqrr/OIIpiMXP1 =/13l -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
