I've installed Tomcat 5.5 into my Ubuntu + sun-java-1.5, tomcat5.5-webapps and tomcat5.5-admin.
I'm in a mess because the structure of directories has changed. For example: *tomcat5.5-webapps package installs webapps into /usr/share/tomcat5.5-webapps, but tomcat5.5 is in /usr/share/tomcat5.5 (symbolic link to /var/lib/tomcat5.5 !!). I don't know how on earth tomcat5.5 can find these webapps? *Other question is when I deploy a single war file correctly, it is deployed into /var/lib/tomcat5.5/webapps As you can see bellow (executing a "ls -l"): /usr/share/tomcat5.5/: ... bin ... common ... conf -> /var/lib/tomcat5.5/conf ... doc -> ../doc/tomcat5.5 ... logs -> /var/lib/tomcat5.5/logs ... server ... shared -> /var/lib/tomcat5.5/shared ... temp -> /var/lib/tomcat5.5/temp ... work -> /var/lib/tomcat5.5/work /var/lib/tomcat5.5/: ... conf ... logs -> ../../log/tomcat5.5 ... shared ... temp ... webapps ... work -> ../../cache/tomcat5.5 It implies that exists three webapps directories: /usr/share/tomcat5.5/server/webapps ... admin ... host-manager ... manager /usr/share/tomcat5.5-webapps/ (tomcat5.5-webapps ubunti package (apatitude install tomcat5.5-webapps) ... balancer ... balancer.xml ... jsp-examples ... jsp-examples.xml ... ROOT ... ROOT.xml ... servlets-examples ... servlets-examples.xml ... tomcat-docs ... tomcat-docs.xml ... webdav ... webdav.xml And as last: (where tomcat manager has deployed my web application) /var/lib/tomcat5.5/webapps/ ... web_gm ... web_gm.war And to make things worse, tomcat manager says that web_gm (my web app) is running!!! When I want to access it (http://host:8180/web_gm), tomcat says me that "The requested resource (/web_gm/) is not available.", however I can access to manager, admin, jsp-examples applications. So, Can you help with this structure of directories? Where are the config files that links all. Other question: Why context.xml is as bellow? It is empty!!! <!-- The contents of this file will be loaded for each web application --> <Context> <!-- Default set of monitored resources --> <WatchedResource>WEB-INF/web.xml</WatchedResource> <!-- Uncomment this to disable session persistence across Tomcat restarts --> <!-- <Manager pathname="" /> --> </Context> Can you help me please? Note I'm running tomcat using daemon (/etc/init.d/tomcat5.5) Thanks in advanced for all. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/I%27m-in-a-mess-with-Tomcat-5.5-tf4290941.html#a12215388 Sent from the Tomcat - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
