Yes but i have multiple vhost for different webapps.
I have try to put <Host name="vhost1.mydomain.com" debug="0" appBase="/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/" like you suggest but when i launch tomcat it seem that i only get the ROOT webapps, and how can the server know that vhost1.mydomain.com is for /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/myaccount for exemple and vhost2.mydomain.com to myaccount2 if i only write appbase to where my webapps are deployed?

Ok for the path and docBase so the context.xml is somethink like :
<Context reloadable=true /> only ?

the defaultHost attribute is default.mydomain.com only.

I have read the http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=tomcat-user&m=116198740004759&w=2 and i have deploy a default website in ROOT (with a META-INF/context.xml) but none of my websites work.

So i have in the server.xml :

<Engine name="Catalina" defaultHost="default.mydomain.com">
<Host name="vhost1.mydomain.com" debug="0"
appBase="/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/"
unpackWARs="true"  autoDeploy="true">
</Host>
<Host name="vhost2.mydomain.com" debug="0"
appBase="/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/"
unpackWARs="true"  autoDeploy="true">
</Host>

and in /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/ROOT/META-INF/context.xml
   /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/myaccount1//META-INF/context.xml
/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/myaccount2//META-INF/context.xml
<Context reloadable="true" />
<WatchedResource>WEB-INF/web.xml</WatchedResource> (taken from internet don t know if it s necessary)

And nothing works , for default.mydomain.com i get : HTTP/1.1 400 No Host matches server name default.mydomain.com
for vhost1.mydomain.com i get only a 404 error

What i am doing wrong ? and in this configuration how can the server know that vhost2 is for myaccount2 and vhost1 for myaccount1 for example ?
thanks for your help

i would like to setup a virtual host on tomcat

If you only have one host to worry about, you don't need to use virtual hosts. You can also use the alias attribute if you have multiple domains to support with identical apps.

<Host name="vhost1.mydomain.com" debug="0"
appBase="/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/myaccount/"

The above is incorrect. The appBase parameter should point to the directory in which your webapps are deployed, not to a specific webapp.

/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/myaccount/META-INF/context.xml :
<Context path="" docBase="" override="true">
</Context>

When the <Context> element is in META-INF/context.xml, the path and docBase attributes must not be used, since they are derivable from the location of the app. If you want "myaccount" to be the default webapp for the <Host>, change its name (subdirectory) to ROOT (case sensitive). Read some of this weekend's messages for more detail, especially this one:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=tomcat-user&m=116198740004759&w=2

Alert!: HTTP/1.1 400 No Host matches server name vhost1.mydomain.com

What is the defaultHost attribute set to in your <Engine>?
