I'm a little confused about the Host appBase attribute.
Let's say that my website resides in D:\www\site1
I don't like using {Tomcat}/webapps so I don't want to have it as a base
directory for websites. What I've been doing so far is create an empty
folder alongside "webapps", named "empty", and use it as appBase, e.g.
<Host name="Site1" appBase="empty" unpackWARs="false" autoDeploy="false">
<!-- this works but what's the deal with appBase? !-->
<Context path="/" docBase="D:/www/site1" />
</Host>
But it feels like I'm doing something wrong. I expect this to work, but
it doesn't:
<Host name="Site1" appBase="D:/www/site1" unpackWARs="false"
autoDeploy="false">
<!-- this doesn't work !-->
</Host>
Can anyone explain why the snippet above doesn't work, and if that is
the way it should be, then what is the purpose of Host/appBase?
TIA
