But I have never used it myself for deploying context, so can't give you any advise about that. http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/monitoring.html Ronald.
RE: Deploy Dynamic Contexts
Thanks Chuck, After thinking about it some more I realise the servlet approach is the wrong time to tackle this issue. I will copy the contexts at installation time as we use installshield/install anywhere deployment and this makes much more sense.

Deploy Dynamic Contexts
Hi Tomcat Community, Does anyone know if it is possible to dynamically create contexts on demand. I have a requirement to be able to ship a single application.war file and create multiple contexts from this without manually using the manager application etc. Tomcat is the latest version 6.0.29. Dare I ask if it is possible to extend the manager servlet to achieve this deployment task? Thanks in advance Rob
