Difference between webappRoot and applicationRoot

Hi folks,

does anyone remember what the reason for separating the above-mentioned
root directories was? I never used anything else than "webContext".

I was trying to clean up some stuff. I thought it would be better to
resolve files used by Turbine from the ServletContext but I was afraid
to break some use-case.

Bye, Thomas

Hi Thomas,

I’m only guessing - could it be for supporting hybrid web-apps? You have multiple installations of the WAR but a single application root directory used by all webs - SOLR 3.x was installed like this

Thanks in advance,
