Make Tomcat serve a URL in the form of www.mywebapp.com
Hello more questions about Tomcat.
After a few days and changes in the configuration
files I managed to transfer all web application from
Resin to Tomcat. What I would like to do now is to
configure Tomcat to server a url in the form of
www.mywebapp.com.
mywebapp is configured under the /webapps folder. So
far in order to run it I was doing
http://localhost/mywebapp but I need to change it. I
have defined the Context tag to be like:
<Context path="www.mywebapp.com"
docBase="C:\Tomcat4.1\webapps\mywebapp" debug="0" />
but with no luck. "mywebapp" is registered with a
DNS server. What if I also want to have other
webapplication in the form of: www.app1.mywebapp.com,
www.app2.mywebapp.com etc?
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.
Panos

Hello Andoni,
yes you are right, I should have done more "manual
reading", it was all there but paradoxically I had not
seen it. Anyway thank you for your time and help I
really appreciate it. It works fine now. All I did was
to add a <Host> tag and a <Context> as a sub-element
to this host.
Thank you.

Hi,
You need to go up another level in the tags of your server.xml. The
container which holds your <Context> is the <Host> container whose "name="
attribute is the domain name you want to call from your browser.
As for other names, if you want to have multiple Virtual Hosts you can have
multiple <Host> containers inside the <Engine> container each with one or
more <Context> containers. If on the other had you just want a single
VHost to be capable of being referred to by several names then you can use
one or more <Alias>myhost.com</Alias> tags in your <Host> tag alongside your
contexts.
Basically though, the long and the short of it is that you should do much
more "manual reading"!!
HTH,
Andoni.
