Hello,
I have tried to find the answer but I could not find a (to me) clear
answer.
I build my applications with Maven and as a result my war file is like
myapp-web-1.2.3.war. The static content is delivered by the Apache Web
Server so I use this server to access the application deployed in
Tomcat
7.0.27:
JkMount /myapp-web-0.1.0-SNAPSHOT worker1
JkMount /myapp-web-0.1.0-SNAPSHOT/* worker1
JkMount /myapp worker1
JkMount /myapp/* worker1
I want to use the myapp since this will remain the same even if the
version
changes. In the war file I have a context.xml file in the META-INF at
'root' level (not in the one in the classes directory) with the
content:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Context path="/myapp" />
The path attribute is invalid in a context.xml file.
Read the "Context" chapter in the Configuration Reference in Tomcat
7.0 documentation.
I read it but it was not really clear to me. Must be because I am not
really familiar with the way that Tomcat is configured. I just switched
from Glassfish to Tomee and I just tried to find the way to define in my
war file the name that I want the user to use in the URL. Glassfish let
you enter this at deployment time and WebLogic has a context-root tag in
the weblogic.xml or application.xml file.
It is true that the path value is incorrect. Somehow the // was inserted
after copy paste and I did not see it :-( same goes for the 2 last
JkMount lines. They should be similar to the first 2 :-( I changed it in
this mail.
The application works fine if I use
http://localhost/myapp-web-0.1.0-SNAPSHOT but when I use
http://localhost/myapp I only get the welcome page and when I try to
get
another page then I get an error message:
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: Name [app/AppName] is not bound
in this
Context. Unable to find [app].
In the manager application of Tomcat I see both names in the
application
list.
I was able to use this in Glassfish. There I could define a
application name
in the console when I deployed the application. Is it also possible
with
Tomcat or do I need to rename the war file to myapp.war before I
deploy the
application?
The recommended way is to rename the war.
Note, I've not tried this but from the documentation it should work.
1. Create another directory at the same level as webapps - call it apps
2. Copy your appname-1.2.3-SNAPSHOT.war there
3. Create an appname.xml file and place it in conf/Catalina/[hostname]
<Context docBase="${catalina.base}/apps/appname-1.2.3-SNAPSHOT.war"/>
(At least I think ${catalina.base} will be interpolated)
It is important to note that the war file (and docBase) CANNOT be
inside the enclosing host's appBase (as defined in server.xml). Thus,
you cannot point this inside of $CATALINA_BASE/webapps - the default
location of appBase.
See the following for more detail:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/context.html
On second thought, just rename the war file.
. . . . just my two cents.

Thanks for the explanation. It looks very complicated to me. If someone
wants to deploy your application he/she needs to do the same. I think
that I will go for the rename of the war file. I will try to use the
##version in the name to keep track of the version number.
