Hi there, We have been finding it difficult to persuade tomcat (5.5.12 and 5.5.17) to unpack a ROOT.war file, either when starting up tomcat from scratch, or hot-deploying.
We *were* able to get tomcat to expand the war file if it contains a META-INF directory containing a context.xml file. However if this directory is missing from the war, and instead a ROOT.xml context file is present in conf/Catalina/localhost before starting tomcat - the war file *isn't* expanded. Our server.xml file contains the default settings (unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true"). Any ideas? We would rather not include context.xml files in the war, as the same war file will be deployed on different servers, which require different JNDI resources. thanks Andy Cooke ----------------------------------------- This transmission may contain information that is privileged, confidential, legally privileged, and/or exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
