Hmm... this seems to get me a bit closer... but it still doesn't give me what I want I think....
now, I can type in http://<machine>:port and get the axis index page, and if I type in http://<machine>:port/services/exampleService, I get the following... ExampleService Hi there, this is an AXIS service! Perhaps there will be a form for invoking the service here... Clients need to set the endpoing as: <machine>:port/services/exampleService but, what I really need is something that would permit the client endpoint to be <machine>:port Any ideas? > -----Original Message----- > From: Rangarajan , Suresh ( Cognizant ) > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, August 22, 2003 8:02 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: Forwarding from ip:port to ip:port/path > > > Yes, > You can change the server.xml in your tomcat's conf directory > as below... > > <Context className="org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext" > crossContext="false" reloadable="false" > mapperClass="org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContextMapper" > useNaming="true" debug="0" swallowOutput="false" > privileged="false" displayName="Apache-AXIS" > wrapperClass="org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapper" > docBase="D:\tomcat4\webapps\axis" cookies="true" path="/" > cachingAllowed="true" > charsetMapperClass="org.apache.catalina.util.CharsetMapper"> > </Context> > > N.B : this is with tomcat ver.4.1.12. > older versions also support this.. dont know abt tomcat 5 > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Keith Hatton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, August 22, 2003 5:19 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: Forwarding from ip:port to ip:port/path > > > Hi Laura, > > If I read you correctly, what you need to do is persuade > Tomcat that the Axis application (WAR file) is installed as > the "root" application (i.e. context="/").
