Turn off the deployOnStartup attributes of the <Host> element. Also consider turning off autoDeploy. http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/host.html#Automatic%20Application%20Deployment > 2) what is the interpretation of a missing <load-on-startup> tag ? Initialization when Tomcat feels like it, which should be at the first reference. > Using the Tomcat Manager app, I can "stop" and "start" an application. Stopped is deployed but inactive; requests return a 503 status (as opposed to a 404 when the webapp isn't deployed). Webapps in a stopped state may be started or removed. The normal cycle is: deploy --> start <--> stop --> undeploy The initial transition from deploy --> start happens automatically when a webapp is deployed. > What really happens there, internally ? Juha L answered that succintly. Gotta use all that space in the heap for something... - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
