Hi All, I was just wondering if it is possible to have "overlapping contexts"? I am not sure if this will make sense so I'll try and explain it with a little example;
Basically, I'd like to be able to have two *similar* URL's map to separate locations on the filesystem; Example; localhost/myapp/index.jsp (refers to C:\myapp\index.jsp) localhost/myapp/external/index.jsp (refers to Z:\otherapp\index.jsp) Ideally, I'd like to achieve this using Tomcat's <Context path="/myapp" docBase="C:/myapp" ... > <Context path="/myapp/external" docBase="Z:/otherapp/" ... > element in server.xml. The important part here is that both contexts begin with /myapp! However, the last time I tried this, I had several different errors when Tomcat started up. I believe this may be due to the fact that with Tomcat 5.5 and above you shouldn't have context tags in server.xml. Therefore, I tried similar things in conf/context.xml with much similar results (errors). I then tried separate context files in C:\tomcat5\work\Catalina\localhost but this didn't work either. Can someone tell me if what I am trying to do is possible? If so, a hint in the right direction would also be appreciated ;) Regards, Chris Connaught honoured AIM 'Decade of Excellence' Award Connaught awarded Partnering Contractor of the Year 2005 Connaught wins AIM 'Company of the Year' award 2004 West of England Business of the Year Award Winner 2003 Why not visit our website http://www.connaught.plc.uk Disclaimer: The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
