Webapp, "webapps", "WEB-INF", WARs, it all gets _so_ confusing.
(What has happened to my brain? 8-<) ----- Original Message ----- Jan Søgaard corrected: Hi. If you mean, whether you are able to place the Servlet, (I don't know about jsp, but I guess it is the same) code outside the webapps directory, the answer is YES. In your server.xml file, you are able to specify the docbase of your code: E.g. <Context path="/yourURL" docBase="c:/Code/myapp" debug="0" reloadable="true" /> In this way you can place the directories, located under the webapps, in other places.

If you mean to ask whether you must keep the folder containing the jsp and java source files inside the webapps directory, I think the answer is yes. ** "inside a webapp directory," (Which is not the "webapps" directory.) ** But don't give up. You can make your own webapps directories, which do not need to be kept in ** "make your own webapp directories," ** the tomcat directory. The way you do this depends on your version of tomcat: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-3.2-doc/appdev/index.html (and follow the "Deployment Organization" link) V. 3.2 uses <Context/> entries in the conf/server.xml file, which I only figured out recently. http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-3.3-doc/appdev/deployment.html V. 3.3 allows using the <Context/> entry in apps-appPath.xml files in /conf. http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/appdev/deployment.html I haven't messed with v. 4, so I don't know yet. -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Troubles with the list: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
