Actually, that won't quite have done what you think it did.

As of 6.0.18, you have a couple of options: 1. Deploy the war outside the appBase and use a foo#bar.xml context file 2. Name your war foo#bar.war 3. Deploy using a directory foo#bar 2 & 3 only work in 6.0.18 onwards See http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/config/context.html for details Mark --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
