http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27916 context.xml in war appears to require a docBase ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004-05-26 17:03 ------- Tomcat not only can, but does deduce the docBase. Anything that I deploy with the manager app has a docBase in the Catalina/localhost/blah.xml file. If I drop a war into the webapps directory that doesn't have a context.xml file set it a docBase automatically set for it too. If docBase is not optional then the bug is that the manager app lets me deploy a war file without the docBase set. This should fail and does not. I'm not sure how this make sense though. When I deploy using the manager app is the docBase used to determine where to upload the war file to on the server? If not how would one deal with a docBase that doesn't match the location of where Tomcat decides to put the upload. Putting a relative path in there doesn't make sense to me either. If I put foo.war for the docBase in foo.war I can't just rename the war file and deploy it to another context - which would have been possible if I had not put a context.xml file in the war file. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
