Hi

we use an embedded Tomcat and are trying to update from version 7.0.40 to
7.0.61. The the embedded tomcat instance starts up fine and our webapp is
also running. However we get the following warning:
Apr 28, 2015 8:58:58 AM org.apache.catalina.startup.Tomcat

file" is a translation of the original German message)

Our start-up process looks like this:
this.tomcat = new Tomcat();
this.tomcat.setBaseDir(".");
this.tomcat.getHost().setAutoDeploy(false);
this.tomcat.getHost().setDeployOnStartup(false);
this.tomcat.setPort(port);
final StandardContext webAppCtx = (StandardContext)
this.tomcat.addWebapp("/weppapp-name", "webapp-name");


Here parameters should be context and the base path

The directory structure looks like this, while working directory is
"Application-Home": /Application-Home/webapps/webapp-name
We noticed that in Tomcat.getWebappConfigFileFromJar(Tomcat.java:1162),
there is the following code:
 protected URL getWebappConfigFile(String path, String url) {
        File docBase = new File(path);
        if (docBase.isDirectory()) {
            return getWebappConfigFileFromDirectory(docBase, url);
        } else {
            return getWebappConfigFileFromJar(docBase, url);
        }
    }
The parameter "path" is "webapp-name" and the parameter "url" is
"/webapp-name".  With the working dir being "Application-Home", new
File(path) will resolve to "/Application-Home/webapp-name", which does
not exist. Hence, Tomcat is proceeding to load the config file from a jar
file, which leads to the warning mentioned above.
My questions are:
- What are the correct parameters for Tomcat.addWebapp(String contextPath,
String docBase)?


first parameter is the context of your web app and the 2nd parameter is the
base directory/absolute path

Using the absolute path did the trick. The following code does not produce a warning anymore and the context.xml is attempted to be loaded from a directory and not a jar file:

final StandardContext webAppCtx = (StandardContext) this.tomcat.addWebapp("/webapp-name", Paths.get(this.tomcat.getHost().getAppBase(), "webapp-name").toAbsolutePath().toString());

- Is there a special working directory expected, while using an embedded
Tomcat?

Hello,
we use an embedded Tomcat and are trying to update from version 7.0.40 to 7.0.61. The the embedded tomcat instance starts up fine and our webapp is
also running. However we get the following warning:

Our start-up process looks like this:

this.tomcat = new Tomcat();
this.tomcat.setBaseDir(".");
this.tomcat.getHost().setAutoDeploy(false);
this.tomcat.getHost().setDeployOnStartup(false);
this.tomcat.setPort(port);
final StandardContext webAppCtx = (StandardContext)
this.tomcat.addWebapp("/weppapp-name", "webapp-name");

The directory structure looks like this, while working directory is
"Application-Home": /Application-Home/webapps/webapp-name

We noticed that in Tomcat.getWebappConfigFileFromJar(Tomcat.java:1162),
there is the following code:
 protected URL getWebappConfigFile(String path, String url) {
        File docBase = new File(path);
        if (docBase.isDirectory()) {
            return getWebappConfigFileFromDirectory(docBase, url);
        } else {
            return getWebappConfigFileFromJar(docBase, url);
        }
    }

The parameter "path" is "webapp-name" and the parameter "url" is
"/webapp-name".  With the working dir being "Application-Home", new
File(path) will resolve to "/Application-Home/webapp-name", which does not exist. Hence, Tomcat is proceeding to load the config file from a jar file,
which leads to the warning mentioned above.

My questions are:
- What are the correct parameters for Tomcat.addWebapp(String contextPath,
String docBase)?
- Is there a special working directory expected, while using an embedded
Tomcat?

Thanks in advance for any support,
Benjamin Rogge
