Hi Andrew, I am not sure whether you can do that in you ASP page but I am sure if you play around with the logging capabilities of mod_jk you should be able to log it in the mod_jk.log file Regards -Original Message- From: Andrew Hole [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 25 September

Hi I have asked about this directive(JkShmFile) before but on the apache-http list. I am still not 100% clear as to the exact usage of this directive. This page is very vague about usage: http://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/reference/apache.html After a lot of googling and searching

Hi Christopher, Ouch. Why do you delete the application before you stop Tomcat? I would stop Tomcat and then delete the files. We delete the war file before stopping tomcat to give Tomcat a chance to auto-undeploy the application automatically. I just read last night that

Why bother un-deploying and then shutting-down? A shutdown undeploys all applications, first, anyway. I think you're just complicating the process. We were just being paranoid. We were seeing issues before with tomcat serving the wrong version of an application even though we believed we

I'm always a fan of not doing anything you don't have to. There's no question that you will increase the performance of your application by disabling the auto-deployment features of Tomcat. The difference may be undetectable, but it's a simple change, requires virtually no testing, and

Hi A quick google showed that one could possibly use a maven plugin to automatically deploy war files or ant. If you have a fairly large infrastructure eg: 6 Apache clusters(two servers configured active/passive) each with about 10 Tomcats. How would you do the following: * Quickly deploy a
