This is probably an obvious question to most but I am new with tomcat
5.5 so I am still trying to figure things out. I want to create a web
project with the document base in /home/tomcat/applications as opposed
to the normal webapps folder. This is what I have in my server.xml:
<Server port="8005" shutdown="SHUTDOWN">
<GlobalNamingResources>
<!-- Used by Manager webapp -->
<Resource name="UserDatabase" auth="Container"
type="org.apache.catalina.UserDatabase"
description="User database that can be updated and saved"
factory="org.apache.catalina.users.MemoryUserDatabaseFactory"
pathname="conf/tomcat-users.xml" />
</GlobalNamingResources>
<Service name="Catalina">
<Connector port="8081" />
<Engine name="Catalina" defaultHost="localhost">
<!-- <Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.UserDatabaseRealm"
resourceName="UserDatabase" /> -->
<Host name="localhost" debug="0">
<Context path="" docBase="/home/tomcat/applications/"
debug="0" reloadable="true" />
</Host>
</Engine>
</Service>
</Server>
It works when I point my browser to http://www.myhost.com:8081/ and it
shows a customized welcome page from my index.jsp. However, as I
understand it, <Context> should now be in its own xml file. I extracted
the <Context> content and placed it in context.xml. I placed
context.xml in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost, restarted tomcat
but now the browser shows nothing. I also tried placing it in the conf/
folder but that doesn't work either. Where does the file go?
Thanks for any help in advance.
