Manager App Question
Hello,
I just began playing with the manager app and am confused on how it deploys a new web application.
Here is the lowdown.
I had an existing one at:
/opt/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.3/webapps/trips
I did a cp -r from /opt/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.3/webapps/trips to
/opt/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.3/webapps/trips-dev in order to set up a development environment.
Then I ran the command:
http://localhost:8080/manager/install?path=/trips-dev?war=file:/opt/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.3/webapps/trips-dev
This worked, the web app deployed and I can now browse it perfectly. What I am confused on it
that I can stop and start tomcat /opt/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.3/bin/shutdown.sh & startup.sh and it
still sees the trips-dev app. Where does it store this information?? I have checked server.xml
and it does not contain any info on trips-dev. I must be missing some config file, but for the
life of me I can't figure out what it is.
Thanks,
Adam

I have found this *not* to be true in the case that you specify the context
in the Server.xml. If I don't specify it in server.xml, it expands the
.war file on startup. With it specified, the .war file isn't expanded and
if I don't expand it manually before Tomcat startup, the context will not
be found. Any solution to that problem?

Tomcat will always deploy all applications in the directory
"webapps" on startup. It's a feature you do not have to configure
that somewhere.
