Also you will need write/create permissions to the %TOMCAT_HOME%/work
folder..

Subject: Re: can't save a context.
ok...
just for the sake of problem identifying: can you stop your tomcat
go into webapps directory, create a new directory foo
change into foo, create an empty WEB-INF directory.
copy a plain html and a plain jsp file into webapps/foo, like foo.jsp
and foo.html
try http://host:port/foo/foo.html and http://host:port/foo/foo.jsp
and tell us what happens?
regards
Leon

okay. i'm being seen. thanks for that, at least.
i can't save a context. I go to catalina-> localhost->make a context
i put in the paths.
i click save, it says save successful.
i click commit changes.
i then try to use the context, on a file some vendor supplied, called
about.jsp. it does not compile--that's another problem, but maybe
that'll help diagnose.
if i put a flat.html file of my own in that location, i can see that
file 100%. so the context has "taken," if you will.
i do a find /apache-tomcat-5.5.17 -name ibi_apps\*
and it does not show a ibi_apps.xml file. it does show some others:
./work/Catalina/localhost/ibi_apps
if i start/stop tomcat, the context is gone.
how'd i install? like this:
as root
mkdir /apache-tomcat-5.5.17
chown jgs:omssys /apache-tomcat-5.5.17
su - jgs
cd /
umask 022
gtar xf apache-tomcat-5.5.17.tar
gtar xf apache-tomcat-5.5.17-admin.tar
-------------
edited startup.sh, shutdown.sh, tomcat-users.xml.
the startup, shutdown i presume cannot be the problem--otherwise,
things wouldn't start at all, right? i can start/stop and see
the processes when they're running.
solaris 9
java 1.5.0_07
tomcat 5.5.17
i had apache-1.3.29 but i can use another or leave it out....
ls -ld /apache-tomcat-5.5.17
drwxr-xr-x 11 jgs omssys 512 Jun 15 16:26
/apache-tomcat-5.5.17
i have this same problem on another machine. i'm inclined to think
it's a bug in 5.5.17.... i'm grasping at straws.
thanks for whatever.
