Shut down Tomcat, and make sure there is no file in conf/Catalina/[hostname]/yourapp.xml. If one exists, Tomcat will prefer that one instead of the one packaged in your webapp's META-INF/context.xml. > That didn't work, so I added it to $CATALINA_HOME/conf/context.xml. Yeah, don't do that: it will enable linking in ALL your webapps (but apparently doesn't work in your case for some reason). There's rarely a reason to modify conf/context.xml. > Finally, I made sure that $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost/myapp.xml > had it. Hmm... you DID re-start, right? > Still no luck. What are you trying to do (obviously use symlinks, but please be specific) and what does Tomcat do rather than what you expect? - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkq493sACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PDU1wCfekyojARcc9heHdMT7FxgY6YP JPYAmwZdA+vKWHKyGjLZNQyzqLe9/mgc =SHyK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
