Apache Tomcat 5.0 & Windows Vista

Hi All,

 

I want to know how to configure Apache Tomcat Webapps folder under
windows vista.  We use Tomcat for a JSP application and Tomcat is
installed under Program Files in Windows Vista.

Since the windows vista logo requirements prohibit any folder under
Program Files having read/write access.  Sunch a folder should go to
Programdata.

 

How can we configure Tomcat  to change the location of webapps folder in
C:\Programdata\..? Are there any further possibilities to configure conf
folder tom different location as well.

 

All I want is: Tomcat is installe din C:\Program Files\Tomcat 

Webapps folder is in C:\ProgramData\Tomcat\webapps

All application are installed under this webapps folder.

 

 

Regards,

Attiq ur-Rehman

It might be easier to set CATALINA_BASE accordingly and not just move
the webapps folder.

Set the "appBase" attribute of your <Host>(s) accordingly.
Don't forget to change the locations for the temp-dir and the work-dirs
of your webapps.

BTW: Tomcat 5.0 is not supported anymore. You know that, don't you?
