I think I know where lies the problem, however I still don't know how to fix it...
I use the sample build.xml file from Tomcat: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/appdev/build.xml.txt to install, reload and distribute my sample application.
When I do an ant -install it apparantly installs the application in the Tomcat manager, however the application doesn't show up in the webapps directory. That's 1.
So maybe there's a conflict with either the context path, which I don't think so, since my build file has explicitly set the context path to /DBTest:
<property name="app.name" value="DBTest"/>
<property name="app.path" value="/${app.name}"/>
<property name="app.version" value=""/>
<property name="build.home" value="${basedir}/build"/>
<property name="catalina.home" value="/Library/Tomcat"/> <!-- UPDATE THIS! -->
<property name="dist.home" value="${basedir}/dist"/>
<property name="docs.home" value="${basedir}/docs"/>
<property name="manager.url" value="http://localhost:8080/manager"/>
<property name="src.home" value="${basedir}/src"/>
<property name="web.home" value="${basedir}/web"/>
Or there's a conflict with the docbase, which I suspect... However I'm not sure why and how to fix it....
Because when I put the generated war file (when doing an ant -dist) in the webapps directory the connection works! Although this works, it's not very convenient, since it defeats the purpose of the automated installing through ant...
Hope I made myself clear?
That's much better.
I recommend you use the deployer package instead. The instructions from appdev are going to be updated or removed.
