Install/Deploy question
Hi,
Every time I deploy a webapp (using Ant and/or manager/deploy to e
remote server), the Context entry in server.xml is rebuilt based on
what's in the web.xml. I am trying to make a jdbc resource available to
just this webapp, so the Context entry seems like a sensible place to
put it - but I can't get the Resource and ResourceParams to stay put!
I have managed to do what I want by creating a Context entry in an xml
file, copying this and the .war to my server and then doing an Install.
I have tried a few other options (below), but nothing seems to be
'suitable'.
Is there any way to get 'deploy' to take both a config and a war - thus
working as the install but without the intermediate step of copying the
files - or is there another approach I have missed?
Many thanks
tim
Alternatives :
DefaultContext - adds the same entries to all the autodeployed wars! Not
good for hiding things.
GlobalNamingResources - can't get web.xml to generate ResourceLink entry
(rather than Resource)

Perfect, many thanks. One for the FAQ I think (I couldn't find it).

Copy your context configuration file into the META-INF (no, I don't mean
WEB-INF) of the .war file. Name the file "context.xml". Now use the
deploy task. Everything should be peachy.
