I'm not trying to. It's the applicationContext.xml file that gets changed by Maven filtering, then it gets put into the war file by the tomcat plugin. I want the plugin to run the war run, not the still in the project with the placeholders. That's what I thought it did. > Tomcat knows nothing about Spring, and "context" has different meaning > in Tomcat (referring to the META-INF/context.xml file in a web > application, see Tomcat Configuration Reference in Tomcat 7 > documentation). > > If you need apply filtering to your data file (that > "applicationContext.xml" one), shouldn't you configure so explicitly > somewhere? I do, and it works perfectly. It creates my context files with the database data in them as it should. These files are built into a war file. I want the Tomcat plugin to run the war file. When I manually deploy the war file that is created, it works perfectly. I thought the point of the Tomcat plugin was that I didn't have to manually deploy the war file. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
