I installed Tomcat 8 and application on Windows 2012 server. The structure is as follows: Driver --> E: A main drictory named --> MyOrg Two directories under MyOrg --> OrgAPP & OrgServer
Under OrgAPP another directory named --> Field Under Field all the directories for the application including WEB-INF Under OrgServer --> Tomcat8 Under Tomcat8 --> Apache-Tomcat Under Apache-Tomcat the Tomcat 8 files in Tomcat 8 document saying to install an application outside webapps this can be down by an xml file in conf/Catalina/localhost/app.xml (the Engine is Catalina and the host is localhost) which I did (the file is Field.xml. In Field.xml I put <Context docBase="E:\MyOrg\OrgAPP"> Now, Tomcat 8 as a service works and I can open the manager GUI and find Field as one of the listed applications. But if I click on it to open it the 404 page comes up! Other thing, if I add to the URL in the Context \Field, the service (I need to restart it) won't work. Any suggession? Shall I change the name of the xml file and add the \Field in the Context? Thank you -- *M. Osama Alghwell*
