Subject: Tomcat 6 Context, docBase and path
Sorry if this is a common question, I didn't find anything
like it by Google.
Reading the actual Tomcat doc and FAQ is probably more productive.
Tried that too...
In a Tomcat 6, I have a Context declaration in server.xml
That's a bad idea right off; there shouldn't be any <Context> elements in
server.xml.
I know, but as I read the docs, that's primarily if you
need to modify contexts without restarting Tomcat and
this isn't needed here. Any other reasons?
with a path and a docBase to a war file with a different
name than the path:
If you insist on having the webapp name be different than its URI
path, you must keep the webapp outside of the <Host> appBase directory,
and place the <Context> element in conf/Catalina/[host]/[appName].xml.
The <Context> element must include the docBase attribute pointing to the
absolute location of the webapp, and the path attribute must *not* be used.
Thanks!
