There isn't a "the classpath" in Tomcat. CATALINA_BASE, not CATALINA_HOME, defines the path for the conf, logs, shared, webapps, work, and temp directories. So the applications are distinct, but the same Tomcat code is used across all such instances - which is the intent of this mechanism. > Btw, how are multiple tomcats with same home affected by the known > bugs in tomcat according not releasing jars on reload? What known bugs in Tomcat itself? The <Context> attributes antiJARLocking and antiResourceLocking must be used judiciously where needed. I am aware of issues in certain frequently used packages that seem to hold references to classes and cause problems with running out of PermGen space on reloads. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
