>From the documentation for Tomcat 5.5.9 at http://localhost:8080/tomcat-docs/config/context.html: The Document Base (also known as the Context Root) directory for this web application, or the pathname to the web application archive file (if this web application is being executed directly from the WAR file). You may specify an absolute pathname for this directory or WAR file, or a pathname that is relative to the appBase directory of the owning Host. If you've not changed server.xml, then the appBase is $CATALINA_HOME/webapps. Rather than using a combination of appBase and docBase in your context file (and I don't think appBase is appropriate in a context node - at least in 5.5.9), you could use an absolute path for docBase: /home/michael/webspace/webapps/user This means that the following URL would potentially work. www.espersunited.com/user/index.jsp The next issue is one of permissions. If you're on a UNIX machine, make sure that /home/michael/webspace/webapps/user is readable by the owner of the process running Tomcat. Otherwise you'll not be able to serve the files. Finally, I notice that you're going directly at this URL: http://www.espersunited.com/user/index.jsp Unless your Tomcat is configured to run on port 80, you will be hitting any web server that is running, and not your Tomcat server. By default, Tomcat serves http on port 8080. In order to get Tomcat and Apache talking, you'll have to do a lot more work. This involves getting mod_jk (or mod_proxy) built and installed, configuring Apache httpd.conf, workers.properties, and possibly server.xml (although the default server.xml already has the ajp 1.3 connector configured). I hope that starts you down a more productive path. /mde/ __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
