Hi all, I have configured Apache Tomcat/4.1.18 an Redhat 7.3 and it works fine with a simple test application.
However, I am now trying to develop as per the "Application developers Guide" (directory structure with Ant controlling build/deploy) and am having some problems with the Ant install task. When I execut 'ant install' I get the message: [install] OK - Installed application at context path /test However, when I try to run that context path I get "resource not found". If I execute 'ant dist' to create a WAR file and copy this to $CATALINE_HOME/webapps and restart tomcat my application works fine.. so I know there are no errors in my web.xml or friends. So why doesn't 'ant install' task correctly insert my application into Tomcat so it is instantly available, i.e. no root priviledge needed to copy war file and no Tomcat restart. Consulting the log files reveals the following information indicating something as gone wrong: --- START LOG --- 2003-03-19 17:51:13 Manager: install: Installing web application at '/test' from 'file:///home/abhorne/sandbox/webapp/build' 2003-03-19 17:51:13 StandardHost[localhost]: Installing web application at context path /test from URL file:/home/abhorne/sandbox/webapp/build 2003-03-19 17:51:13 StandardContext[/test]: Resources start failed: 2003-03-19 17:51:13 StandardContext[/test]: Context startup failed due to previous errors 2003-03-19 17:51:13 StandardContext[/test]: Exception during cleanup after start failed LifecycleException: Container StandardContext[/test] has not been started at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.stop(StandardContext.java:3643) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.start(StandardContext.java:3621) --- END LOG --- Thanks in advance, Arun -- Arun Horne [ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ] Exeter Bioinformatics Centre Washington Singer Laboratories University of Exeter Prince of Wales Road Exeter EX4 4PS http://helix.ex.ac.uk --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
