Re: How to read JNDI resources?
Have found a couple of solutions.
Set the docbase to point to the WAR.
OR manually unpack the WAR after upload.
And the JNDI part works fine now :)

Thank you, I appreciate your reply. I didn't have a context entry so
I added a minimal one (copied from the /examples one) before
proceeding further as shown below.
Unfortunately tomcat doesn't start now. I get a 'Document base
C:\Development\Java\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.31\webapps\xxx does not exist
or is not a readable directory'
So I added a direcory xxx. Now tomcat starts ok but it doesn't unpack
the xxx.war. Again I'm probably making some very simple mistake but
can't see the problem or an answer in the docs or by googling...

Re: Context element problems in conf/server.xml
Thanks again. That works great, I'm accessing my webapp fine as the default webapp with the following However, my application can't find the 'servername' environment property again! The combinations I've tried (each one three times to be sure) and their behaviour path="", docBase="xxx", WAR named xxx.war --- WAR is unpacked, webapp starts but property not found path="/", docBase="xxx", WAR named xxx.war --- WAR is unpacked, webapp starts but property not found path="", docBase="ROOT", WAR named ROOT.war --- WAR is not unpacked, webapp does not start path="/", docBase="ROOT", WAR named ROOT.war --- WAR is unpacked, webapp starts and property found! I'm now really confused. The last option was where I came in! This didn't work previously and now does. I really wish that I understood tomcats behaviour. The only other change is that I've cleaned up my server.xml file but only to remove comments and commented out sections. Andoni, thank you for your replies. Does this make any sense at all to you? If I have the time I'll take a look at the tomcat source but deadlines are looming at the moment... For the moment I have my fingers crossed (not my favourite policy) that all will keep working.

Tomcat unable to unpack WAR (sometimes)
Problem with tomcat 5 on Linux: Put WAR in webapps directory. Restart tomcat. Tomcat restarts ok but doesn't unpack WAR. No errors in catlania.out. Same WAR works ok on Windows machine. Although I'm not sure it is a Windows/Linux issue. Unpack WAR on Linux and re-jar. Then unpacks fine when tomcat restarts. We've previously had a similar problem and never figured it out.

Re: Manager app security concerns
Thanks, slapping them sounds like fun. Yiannis Mavroukakis wrote: I'm just guessing here but you could run the manager app over https.

Re: Deploying to ROOT problem
Hi Justin I've tried what you suggest and it works great for me too. Thank you for your help. If I browse to /manager I do get the directory listing but if I browse to /manager/list for example the manager application works fine. I've seen this same directory listing before. I'm going to try a new tomcat install and try again. Thanks you for your reply; I'm still playing with this and I'll let you know if I make any further progress. Andrew Justin Johnson wrote: I just did the same thing, though with more success. In build.xml, I set app.path to "/", and app.name to "ROOT", then adjusted the deploy task to your first try. On deployment, ROOT.war is copied to [tomcat]/webapps and expanded into ROOT (I changed the target depends to "dist" from "compile"). Everything's there, and it browses normally. However, now the manager app doesn't work, instead simply showing the directory listing for server/webapps/manager. Admin still works correctly. Any idea?
