> hi list, i have a problem. i have apache 2.0 + tomcat 5.5.
> i have N name based virtual hosts on the same machine managed by apache; some of them need to use tomcat (have jsp pages and servlets...)
> if i set a server.xml of tomcat with several hosts, and every host has ist context --> it's ok ( but tomcat documentation says "Please note that for tomcat 5, unlike tomcat 4.x, it is NOT recommended to place <Context> elements directly in the server.xml file")
> if i try to move the context informations in a .xml file in a $CATALINA_HOME/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/ directory, tomcat cannot serve anything (it acts as he cannot find files in docBase);
> - which is the right configuration ?
> - is it necessary to define different host in server.xml ?(--> so, when i add a new host i need to restart apache and tomcat...)
