Hi all,
Environment:
tomcat 4.1.10
ant 1.5
solaris 2.8
JDK 1.4.0_01
I have an application that to work must be deployed in the default
context /.
It is working fine both when i define it with app.xml into webapps
and when i load it dynamically using the manager install command.
The following managers commands:
install
remove
start
stop
reload
using path=/ to refer to default context act correctly on the
application.
The problem is that i cannot deploy a war file of the same application
when using default context.
My deploy task is
deploy url=${manager.url}
username=${manager.username}
password=${manager.password}
path=/
war=file://${dist.home}/${deploy.app.name}.war/
and i receive the message
[mdeploy] OK - Installed application at context path /
If a use manager list command i see:
[list] OK - Listed applications for virtual host localhost
[list]
/:running:0:/prd/iv00/portale/tomcat-4.1/work/Standalone/localhost/manager/.war
[list] /manager:running:0:/usr/local/tomcat-4.1/server/webapps/manager
[list] /admin:running:0:/usr/local/tomcat-4.1/server/webapps/admi
In the server.xml file i find now the generated entry:
Context className=org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext
cachingAllowed=true charsetMapperClass
=org.apache.catalina.util.CharsetMapper cookies=true crossContext
=false debug=0 displayName=Infoviabilita docBase
=/prd/iv00/portale/tomcat-4.1/work/Standalone/localhost/manager/.war
mapperClass=org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContextMapper path=/
privileged=false reloadable=false swallowOutput=false useNaming
=true wrapperClass=org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapper
/Context
In the log i see:

Up to now everything looks good but...
If i refer the application as usual via browser i get:
HTTP Status 500 - No Context configured to process this request
If i try to undeploy the app using the manager undeploy command i get:
[undeploy] FAIL - No context exists for path /
The odd thing is that now i use manager install i see:
[install] OK - Installed application at context path /
and if i list i see (?!):
[list] OK - Listed applications for virtual host localhost
[list]
/:running:0:/prd/iv00/portale/tomcat-4.1/work/Standalone/localhost/manager/.war
[list] /manager:running:0:/usr/local/tomcat-4.1/server/webapps/manager
[list] /:running:0:/prd/iv00/devel/infoviabilita-1.1/build
[list] /admin:running:0:/usr/local/tomcat-4.1/server/webapps/admin
You see the miracle? I have TWO application installed at default
context, one working (that installed with install comand) and one not
working (that installed with the deploy command).
The only way to get rid of that
/:running:0:/prd/iv00/portale/tomcat-4.1/work/Standalone/localhost/manager/.war
context-not-context is to stop tomcat and manually delete the entry
from web.xml.
Obviously if instead of using path=/ i use any other valid context
to deploy, everything works ok. Well, it works in the sense that
tomcat acts correctly with the application, the app itself won't run
because it's not written to run in a context different from / and
its web.xml is not yet complete to have it run from a war file, but
at least i see the app is there.
Is this a bug or am i doing something really odd?
My best regards, Gabriele.
