Context.xml
Hello,
I am having trouble deploying a webapp residing outside of the webapps
directory. I've added deployXML="true" to <Host /> in an otherwise
standard conf/server.xml on Windows XP with Tomcat 5.0 and 5.5. I've
created a file called test.xml in webapps:
<Context
path="/test" docBase="C:\mydir" debug="0">
</Context>
*with and without the ResourceLink found in the documentation.
Restarting the server seems to have no effect. I see nothing in the
log that indicates either SUCCESS nor FAILURE. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Alex

on a test machine I have done this to deploy items and with the correct
parameters set, i didn't need to shutdown tomcat or restart.

Redux,
Note that I can use the admin/deployer and reference my test.xml
Context fragment, and that works. But I hope to live deploy using the
Context fragment only (no clicking). Is this not possible?
I can stop the server and create a file in conf/Catalina/HOSTNAME to
achieve what I am looking for, but have not seen this mentioned in the
documentation so I am leary about this technique.
Thus:
CATALINA_HOME/webapps/a.xml
<Context
path="/b"
docBase="C:\c"
debug="0" />
after deploying creates:
CATALINA_BASE/conf/Catalina/localhost/b.xml
which can be modified for the next restart
b.xml points to C:\c
and I can see the contents at http://localhost/b
Cheers,
Alex

What is the All? Simply the eye & forms, ear & sounds, nose & aromas,
tongue & flavors, body & tactile sensations, intellect & ideas. This,
monks, is called the All. Anyone who would say, 'Repudiating this All,
I will describe another,' if questioned on what exactly might be the
grounds for his statement, would be unable to explain, and
furthermore, would be put to grief. Why? Because it lies beyond range.

Re: Context.xml

you need to place your test.xml file in $tomcat_base/conf/$engine/$host.
usually
$tomcat_home/conf/Catalina/localhost directory.
Then you will need your content in c:\mydir. Also, you might want to try
C:/mydir.
