Hi,
The tomcat version on my Desktop is 5.5.27 and the Tomcat version on the
Unix environment is 5.5.23. Could the above minor version difference cause
it?
One thing i have noticed is that if i take the /META-INF/Context.xml file
and copy it into $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost/testapp.xml it does
work.
i.e. why does it require the context file in that directory and why does it
have to be renamed to my applications context. On the Windows environment i
dont have to rename and copy the context file to
$CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost
Thanks
