Hi Folks, I would like to run Tomcat4/Catalina as a service with Apache. If I uncomment the <Service=Tomcat-Standalone ...> in server.xml Tomcat does not start! Even if I add <Context path="" docbase="mybase" > </Context> or <Host ..> <Context > </Context> </Host> in the "<Service name="Tomcat-Apache>" section Generaly I use other dirs for webdevelopment as the "webapps" in Tomcat lets say I have two different dirs, for example: 'd:\1\1\myapp1' and 'd:\1\2\myapp2' How should I tell the Apache-Connector to lookup for this two dirs? Do I need to define a virtual host and where(standalone or connection-service)? Do I need to maintain the Standalone-Service? Do I need to have a web.xml in every of my above mentioned dirs? What has to be the content of such a web.xml in case if it's need? Here is some stdout of Tomcat if I use the original server.xml with "myhost" as "hostname" defined in httpd.conf.
