Hello - We are using Tomcat 5.5.19. We need to deploy applications to the root context, ideally we would like to deploy them to through the ant deploy tasks. Initially I specified the root context path in the server.xml file, however this has problems. For example I had the ant script deploy to the context test, and the root context entry in server.xml would point to that path. This works fine, except that it requires tomcat to be restarted after a deployment, which really defeats the benefits of the ant deployment, the test context would be updated but the root context was still the previous version. I tried removing the context entries from server.xml and deploying to the / path from Ant. This works however if the server has to be restarted the application is not persisted and must be redeployed. What are the best practices for deploying to the root context, any special requirements from the Ant side?

Thanks!

-Nate
