Hi George, Thank you very much, you made my day!! I thought I could name the .xml files whatever I like to, but that was a huge mistake that costed me 2 days. Naming the file ROOT.xml solved the problem. Can't remember having read that anywhere in the doc's. Don't know if it's just a bad style, but path="" and path="/" seems both to work well. But I'll listen to you and use an empty string.
Once again, thank you very much and have a nice weekend -----Original Message----- From: George Sexton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 02, 2005 18:13 To: 'Tomcat Users List' Subject: RE: <Context> in separate file doesn't work One other thing, for a ROOT context, the file should be named ROOT.xml George Sexton MH Software, Inc. http://www.mhsoftware.com/ Voice: 303 438 9585 > -----Original Message----- > From: Trond Hersløv [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, September 02, 2005 4:50 AM > To: Tomcat Users List > Subject: <Context> in separate file doesn't work > > Hi tomcat fellas! > http://venus:8080 gives me the index.html in the folder > /home/trond/GTG/inside, but only when I use the server.xml below. > When I take the <Context..... /> and put it in a separate file, > ${CATALINA_HOME}/conf/Catalina/venus/test.xml it doesnt work anymore. > Does anybody know why?
