Using this, will only be the 'newest' ROOT*.war be deployed? However, using that scheme means that the war file is somewhat fixed to the pattern "ROOT##[0-9].war, i'd be better that in tomcat the root context could be configured using a directory, wherein the war file(s) reside, like docBase="<dir>". but I've noticed that using that (in a context.xml or in ROOT.xml) you must also specify the file name, i.e. docBase="myapps/warfilename", in order to 'link' myapps/warfilename.war. I'd prefer a mechanism like a ROOT.xml with <Context docBase="myapps/*##version.war". That way, it would be possible to deploy war files with custom names and versions under any context (depending on the file name). Sure, if two different war files would reside in docBase, an exception should be thrown. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Deploying-ROOT-Context-for-variable-.war-filename-tp32216447p32216645.html Sent from the Tomcat - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
