Hello,
have you tried naming the war files
"ROOT.war"??
Because I think there is a special naming convention for the root context.
This means if you have different applications you need to deploy them into
different folders.

Subject: Managing automatic deployment with multiple virtual hosts
Hi There,
I am running Tomcat 5.5.9 in production, using 1 tomcat instance to
service several websites (each with their own hostname) via virtual
hosts. I have Apache 2 running in front of Tomcat, connecting via
mod_jk.
I am having OutOfMemory issues, and have noticed that, due to my webapps
structure, I appear to be deploying 2 instances of each site. When I
look in the manager application I see the following in the Application
List:
www.sitea.com/
localhost/sitea
www.siteb.com/
localhost/siteb
www.sitec.com/
localhost/sitec
Etc. etc. My current directory structure is simply placing the war files
for each application into the tomcat/webapps folder. I then add a <Host>
declaration in the server.xml file for each virtual host:
<Host name="www.sitea.com">
<Context path="" docBase="/opt/tomcat/webapps/sitea" debug="0"
reloadable="true"/>
</Host>
<Host name="www.siteb.com">
<Context path="" docBase="/opt/tomcat/webapps/siteb" debug="0"
reloadable="true"/>
</Host>
<Host name="www.sitec.com">
<Context path="" docBase="/opt/tomcat/webapps/sitec" debug="0"
reloadable="true"/>
</Host>
I still have the localhost set up in the server.xml file:
<Host name="localhost" appBase="webapps" unpackWARs="true"
autoDeploy="true" xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false">
I presume this is the culprit. The problem I am having is that I cant
figure out how to get Tomcat to auto-deploy war files without then
creating a second running instance in memory with a context path of
/sitea. I've tried a variety of different directory structures, but am
unable to deploy a war file without it correctly deploying to a / path,
and thus not consuming more memory within the VM.
Is there a best practise way of doing this? Should I be putting
context.xml declarations in the META-INF directory of my war files?
Thanks in advance,
Ben
