Tomcat won't reload server.xml. It's just too complicated to determine what has changed and how to perform an in-place reinit that only does what is "necessary". On the other hand, JMX is very powerful and you can make runtime changes to Tomcat using that. Maybe you can consider performing two operations whenever you need to add a virtual host: 1. Modify the conf/server.xml 2. Issue a JMX command to provision the new virtual host in the running Tomcat You might also want to consider having separate Tomcat instances per domain. That might be more manageable, though it will require more memory on your server(s). - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEEMmKgYcQvxMe7tcJcHPApP6U8pFgFAltWH1YACgkQHPApP6U8 pFif+xAAqBJLoPub6ZsICJGVp5N87IYUlhcsFXEULLkomOkDCHGROea91uhUOdu+ a9JRZbC6tQQmhopqGNb5HkZrkNvkPBT13/71TDB7faGzwLXOv1/V0dRPO7KscgTq PikAuyXhSNyfOYorv7xKq2MwUdT86dAovukf8ClEDE1mX/7CgtE/MjW64eQcTc59 HNB8CilW8bAs3ApZso1EQEaUYoE7EkCtyWlnEFAtbbPsgzDD3CTpp4iqiVDGXkYD LsXUvLM8DtVdslzLztX5rRRxDaPsYXd8g9IOfi4yLqOMeOeO0FogBc6VpuC1d7gD TOeQARm0k2Xf/RbUKbAbD1gV/8xFPI4bKtSJINSD/A5o1Qpvv/rtVz0pQYJA8fgb u8v485wpmEFSDN+tE9MXE6YQ6HBJRtGQJ8j2xhhqU+iTbXonYX+BbxW9sqhXvvua 5i6cMjuWBuu49HYreaVHdV9N2kfxEJ2wLzVKXE3BEsWnVGYJEFHYizqS3yNyj9qv cDw1Pc5jfYdfzFkn8oXZe1t1fHXRcxTN6XpwBKzmHxEkwCh+cvwwkZ10zaEjphs1 22X6xsi88e0ng/xdoQPKb+CPNq/13VYS0l1jlAcMc8DPeocSonMv20Y9pySep80h YioelFbIrdjH7teVKoR9GoR2f/vA22D7UV600GOi2nXiWVWkn2Y= =hB5A -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
