Defining data sources in context only
Hi,
My problem is as follows. I would like to have an ant script that
auto-deploys my webapp into Tomcat 5 including any data source resources it
might need (e.g. Database connections). Thus far I have only been able to
define these resources in the server.xml file, which means my deployment
process requires two steps (deploy, then beg my admin to change my data
source references in the server.xml).
What are the best practices for a "one click deploy" with tomcat? Thanks in
advance,
Chris

Have you looked into "context.xml"?
See the Tomcat docs for details -- this may be what you're after.
The context.xml file contains a context's (webapp's) <Context> element
from server.xml, but it stays with the webapp. iow, no more need to
disturb the global server.xml for deployments.

Put at "context.xml" file in the WAR file's META-INF directory. The root
element is <Context> and includes anything that a normal <Context> has in
server.xml. Deploy and you're set to go.
