Hi all,
I'd like to know if there's a shell command to stop and start separate
web applications. With our configuration, we are unable to use the
manager.
* We are running Tomcat 5.5 and Apache 2 with the JK Connector
(mod_jk) on RedHat Linux.
* We have several virtual hosts. When we used 1 service with multiple
hosts, we had the problem that our different webapps were sharing the
same memory space and they kept stepping on each other. So we split
things up. Each host is using a separate service on a different port
(see example below).
Take a look at Ant Tomcat task. It is used to deploy new webapp from Ant
and Ant works from command line. I think this is your best bet. Not to
mention that Ant has such a wide variety of other tasks, it is a great
boost to your work. You might need to do some other tasks at that time
and Ant can help a lot. Of course, if something *is* a job for a shell
script, it might be better to do it a s shell script job :-)
Ant is also using the manager and Nikola says that they cannot use it
for some reason.
Nikola, you cannot use the web interface of the manager or you cannot
use the manager at all?
You can easily write scripts that use wget for example to remotely
control Tomcat through the manager (no need to use the web interface in
a browser but it has to be accessible). Have a look at:
