how to configure multiple urls with app not starting twice
I have been going off this documentation...
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-4.1-doc/html-manager-howto.html
which is a bit confusing. I really want to do something like this...
<Host name="localhost" appBase="webapps"
unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true"
xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false">
<Context path="/" docBase="../apps/saasmain.war"/>
but the doc says path HAS to be saasmain. Doc also says docBase can't be
inside appBase which is why I do the ../apps. I want to do 3 different
domains each being at the root of tomcat, but I seem to keep getting it
wrong. ALSO, I want my files to be saasmain.war, timecard.war, not ROOT.war
as well. I could cheat and do the ROOT.war path but I would rather not do
that and figure out how this all works.
I do have another config that does work with 3 urls and app names BUT it
boots the apps twice every time because docBase is inside appBase according
to the docs.
thanks,
Dean

Then please, please use the doc for the that level, not the ancient version you have been referring to.

First, remove all <Context> elements from conf/server.xml.
Keep your webapps outside of Tomcat's directory space, and create conf/Catalina/[host]/[appName].xml files for each, where [appName] is the URI path for the app (ROOT for the default). Inside each said file, place a <Context> element with a docBase attribute pointing to the location of the related .war file. Do not use a path attribute.

actually, I am using 6.0.16....google yielded me that docs from searching
the web. Anyway to maintain the war file name so we can tell what war file
is what?

Why do you think "doing things the conventional way" is "cheating"??
