> From: Bob DeRemer [mailto:[email protected]] > Subject: META-INF/Context.xml path question
> We're trying to determine if it's possible to build a WAR with an embedded > META-INF/Context.xml that defines the webapp path to be different then the > WAR file name. Short answer: no. > Let's say we have AppServer-<version>.war, but we want to access it as: > http://<host>/Server. Just rename the .war file to Server.war as part of the deployment. No muss, no fuss. > We have reviewed the docs and the only approach that has worked for us is > adding a separate Context element to the <Tomcat>/conf/Server.xml file. Along with the statement that putting <Context> elements in server.xml (not Server.xml) is strongly discouraged - don't do that. You can keep the .war file outside of any <Host> appBase, and create an <appName>.xml file in conf/Catalina/[host] with a path attribute inside the <Context> element that points to the .war file. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
