I added a host entry in the format of www.mydomain.com. Its a very simple site with only an index.html so that I can get the config straight before loading a bunch of content. There is no domain specific context given. I created a folder in the format mydomain.com is the /usr/share/tomcat5/webapps directory and the index file is the only file in the folder domain.com.
I used the tomcat manager to deploy the 'app'. When I access the site from the link in the tomcat manager, the page is displayed as expected. when I try to access it using the domain name on the local server, get a blank screen. When I try to bring the page up from another computer, I get HTTP 400 - Bad Request Any ideas? This seems simple enough, but I obviously missed a step somewhere. I would greatly appreciate hearing from anyone that has had similar issues and got it resolved. I need to get this going so that I can move on to developing the sites. I need to deploy at least 3 domains on the server. I'm certain this is some simple embarrassing oversight of mine. I'm running Tomcat 5.5.3 on Red Hat EL 5.1
