First of all thanks for the rapid answers and your time! I think I did not describe the scenario correctly, so I do this now:
Assume you have a tomcat 'multiple-instances' setup like this /srv/tomcat/instance-1/ /srv/tomcat/instance-2/ ... /srv/tomcat/instance-n/ Every instance dir is a full tomcat "CATALINA_BASE" directory with + instance-i | +- conf +- logs +- temp +- webapps +- work A continuous integration shell-script copies to any instance (1..n) a built .war-file whose filename-suffix varies on application, version, timestamp and build-id. The scripts copies the .war into the instance-i/webapps directory via cp over ssh in the intranet. My question is how to mount the .war-file 'dynamically' as the instance's root context application? Currently all .war builds have a fixed name, assume myapp-3.2.war, and all server.xml's in any instance-i/conf do have the section: <Context path="" docBase="myapp-3.2" /> That way it is guaranteed, that the myapp-3.2.war is started up and mounted as the tomcat instances' root context. However, is it possible by a clever configuration, to deploy any war-filename to any instance-i/webapps directory, so that the war - regardless of its filename - is mounted at the instance's root context? jenskreidler -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Deploying-ROOT-Context-for-variable-.war-filename-tp32216447p32217790.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
