My best advice would be to get the stock version of server.xml that comes with TC 5.5 and start with that. Use your 4.0 server.xml as a reference and add /only/ the things you absolutely need to your new server.xml. (If you're moving from 4.0 to a later version, why not go all the way up to 6.x?) A major difference between TC 4.x and 5.x+ is that you should no longer be putting <Context> elements in your server.xml file. Instead, create a META-INF directory in your webapp (or WAR file) and stick a "context.xml" file in there that contains your <Context> element. If you are using a JNDI DataSource and it doesn't need to be used by any other webapp, then put the <Resource> definition in there instead of in server.xml under <GlobalNamingResources>. See http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/context.html and http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/jndi-datasource-examples-howto.html Also, logging is completely different, so you can ignore any <Logger> elements you may have in your old config. Basically, server.xml should only contain your <Connector> elements and any <Service>, <Host>, and <Alias> customizations you may have made in the past. I hope that helps, - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkn7KbYACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PBNIwCbBIpg/2UX0+b1WHHQqB1Wk8+f 4IgAoLXtDX/ZVqTOMkN8mj1xrTsbnbxa =SWy9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
