I have recently upgraded Tomcat from 5.5.9 to 5.5.12. I had no problems after the upgrade while I was using a mySQL database. Once I started using MS SQL Server, I had to add a resource to Tomcat to get it to work. I did this by creating a context.xml file with the information and placed it in the {tomcat base dir}\conf\Catalina\localhost directory. The context entry is:
<Context path="/SVOIC" docBase="SVOIC" debug="5" reloadable="true" crossContext="true"> I left the default context.xml file in the {tomcat base dir}\conf directory unchanged. Every now and then, I get the following error when I start Tomcat: WARNING: A docBase C:\Tomcat 5.5\webapps\SVOIC inside the host appBase has been specified, and will be ignored And then the final error message: Document base C:\Tomcat 5.5\webapps\context does not exist or is not a readable directory The only way I have been able to resolve this is to uninstall and reinstall Tomcat 5.5.12. However, when I distribute my war file to another computer, I always get the above errors and can not resolve it by doing the uninstall and reinstall. Has anyone else experienced this and has been able to resolve it permanently? I am running on a XP Pro SP2 computer using MS SQL Server 2005 using jdk1.5.0_05.
