Hi,
I am using tomcat 8.5.31 on a 64 bit Linux box running JDK 1.8.0_162.
I have several TLD's pointing to the same tomcat instance. In
conf/server.xml I have the following _additional_ Host tag:
<Host name="mydomain.com" appBase="myappbase" unpackWARs="false"
autoDeploy="false">
<Context path="" docBase="myapp"/>
</Host>
Under tomcat I have my app in the directory: myappbase/myapp
I am able to access myapp via http://mydomain.com
This is as I desire. The problem is that tomcat is deploying myapp twice!
Now I can access my app via:
http://mydomain.com
_and_
http://mydomain.com/myapp
and, it's not just two ways of getting at the same app. There is two
copies of the app running.
I know I can rename my app ROOT. That works. (I can access the app with
my other TLD and no suffix). I don't want to do that because I have a
number of sites running a number of instances all of the same app. Calling
them all ROOT is confusing.
Any help would sure be appreciated.
