Hi, I have installed tomcat last week on our solaris server. I included a new context called trialserv in server.xml file. <Context path="/trialserv" docBase="/usr/local/etc/httpd/trialserv" crossContext="false" debug="0" reloadable="true" > </Context> Afetr restarting the server I found the below given entries for the above context in the mod_jk.config-auot file # The following line makes apache aware of the location of the /trialserv context # Alias /trialserv "/usr/local/etc/httpd/trialserv" <Directory "/usr/local/etc/httpd/trialserv"> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks </Directory> # # The following line mounts all JSP files and the /servlet/ uri to tomcat # JkMount /trialserv/servlet/* ajp12 JkMount /trialserv/*.jsp ajp12 # # The following line prohibits users from directly accessing WEB-INF # <Location "/trialserv/WEB-INF/"> AllowOverride None deny from all </Location> # # The following line prohibits users from directly accessing META-INF # <Location "/trialserv/META-INF/"> AllowOverride None deny from all </Location> ######################### but when actually checked the usr/local/etc/httpd/trialserv directory, I could find neither WEB-INF nor META-INF under it. Then I stored a Hello.class under trialserv just for the checking purpose. When I tried to browse at "http://myservername/trialserv/Hello", got the below mentioned error, Not Found (404) Original request: /trialserv/servlet/Hello Not found request: /trialserv/servlet/Hello Could any one help me in telling what for this META-INF AND WEB-INF are, and how to get them created under the context. For the default context like admin and example they are available. Thanks in anticipation Jayesh. ____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
