(Is this > true?) AFAIK, server.xml is not altered by war file deployments. Tomcat would need to be restarted in order that those alterations to server.xml are evaluated.

What are the details of the entry being made in server.xml? Is Plesk making these alterations?

META-INF/context.xml is the best location I think. Please provide more details about the tomcat version and the answer to the questions above. p > CG > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
