Yes. > 2) add a context entry to the server.xml file on the remote > server Unless you're deploying on an ancient version of Tomcat (you didn't bother to tell us), definitely not. Your <Context> element belongs in your webapp's META-INF/context.xml file, if you need one at all. Note that path and docBase attributes are not allowed in <Context> elements in this circumstance. Read the doc: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/config/context.html > 3) copy the war file to the remote server tomcat/webapp directory That's usually webapps, not webapp. > 4) stop and start tomcat on the remote server Usually not necessary, unless autoDeploy is disabled. > But then what is the process to see it online? The name of the .war file is the name of the webapp, so you reference it via a URL like: http://<hostDNSname>[:port]/<appName> If Tomcat on the remote host is configured to use port 80, you omit that from the URL, of course. If the host has no DNS entry, use its IP address. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
