For tomcat 5:
In your <apachedir>/conf/Catalina/localhost/ directory add a
<contextname>.xml file with the following contents:
<Context path="" docBase="<doc root on your hd>" >
<Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger"
prefix="localhost_log." suffix=".txt"
timestamp="true"/>
</Context>
---------------------------
Thank you for your response, Dave, and I apologize for not specifying
ahead of time which version of Tomcat I am using(5.0.24)
Unfortunately I am still a little confused. How is my application
supposed to know to specifically use context <contextname>? In the
tests I've done after reading your e-mail and following its
instructions, the context being initialized still has name "", and
naturally it fails to look up a data source when told to do so. I've
tried my best to boil this down into the few most-relevant questions
that I can think of:
1. Should Tomcat automatically know to use the context I just created
based only on the empty path that I supplied in its XML file? Do I have
to explicitly specify somewhere that my application should use this
particular context?
2. Does it matter what I choose for <contextname>? Does it have to be
the name of the application?
3. Should I add the context's associated datasource(<resource.../>) in
<contextname>.xml or somewhere in server.xml (or somewhere else)?
Again, all responses are greatly appreciated,
Chris
