How to set jvmRoute outside of server.xml
Hi:
I am trying to find a way to set the jvmRoute without putting it in my server.xml. I'm using 6.0.18. I've found a couple of things:
The Tomcat config reference System Properties section says I can set it on the java command line with a -DjvmRoute option. This did not work.
Another source on the web said that I could set a -D option on the command line and then reference that as a variable within server.xml (java ... -Doption=value ..., and then in server.xml, jvmRoute="${option}". This did not work either.
By testing to see if it works I'm going to the servlet examples and inspecting the Session ID in the Sessions Example.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Bill

Okay, I feel like an idiot. I did some more testing after your comments and found that I was probably hitting a cache problem in my browser. Both methods I that I tried yesterday seem to work find today when I close my browser with each restart.
Sorry for wasting resources...

Given that both these options should work, it sounds like you are not
setting JAVA_OPTS properly. How are you setting this at the moment?

RE: How to set jvmRoute outside of server.xml
Posted by Bill Shaffer <bi...@hotmail.com>.
Martin:
Yes, I am running more than one tomcat in a load balanced environment, and am trying to do so with a shared config file, as the jvmroute is the only thing that changes in the server.xml. I was hoping to find a way to specify the jvmroute parameter other than in the Engine config (or elsewhere in the config file). If I can use a command line system property, then I can modify the start script to pass unique jvmroutes and keep the configs the same across instances (makes management a bit easier).

Bill-
jvmRoute is an Engine Config parameter
Are you running more than 1 tomcat?

Re: How to change Default URL to point to my application index.html page
Posted by Guojun Zhu <zg...@gmail.com>.
I am sorry. If there is no ROOT.xml, Tomcat will use the default and you
just need to do as Ken said. Or you can create the ROOT.xml in the
$Catalina.home/conf/Catalina/(your host)/ROOT.xml. Put <Context path=""
docBase="${catalina.home}/webapps/(your application path)"/> in the file.

Or, if I have correctly understood many previous posts to this forum,
you can delete the ROOT default application and put yours there instead.
A guru here can confirm that, I suppose.

you can change the $Catalina.home/conf/Catalina/(your host)/ROOT.xml file to
direct to your webapp path instead of the ROOT.

If you are uploading your application (myapp) to Tomcat's webapps
folder as a war (myapp.war), do two things:
1. Delete webapps/ROOT ;
2. Rename myapp.war to ROOT.war (case is important), and then upload
it to webapps.

How to change Default URL to point to my application index.html page
Posted by flytoarun <fl...@yahoo.com>.
Hi All,
I am using tomcat 5 version and my application's default page is www.domain.com\myDir\index.html which works fine when i enter full path however when i enter www.domain.com then the tomcat default server page opens. I want to change this default page by my application index.html (Default page).
Can some one help me.
I have tried few things but didn't work. Like adding entries in server.xml and web.xml
Thanks in advance.

Reply to self: I'm dumb. Didn't read through all of the threads before
answering, and by reading the other answers I learned, that -DjvmRoute
is actually supposed to work too, which is confirmed by the
StandardEngine class. Oh well ...

It will not, except as a special case to your next example.

This should really work. Maybe when editing server.xml and replacing the
jvmRoute value with your ${option} you didn't notice, that the config
line using jvmRoute in server.xml by default is only a comment?

You test is fine.

You could also look at the system properties from inside any of your
JSPs or servlet to make sure, that the system property "option" actually
has been set correctly by your start script.
