I plan on using 2 virtual hosts, something like blah.com | and development.blah.com, each would get it's own set of system properties. System properties are, as the name might suggest, system-wide. So, you can't set "foo" to "bar" for one webapp and "baz" for the other. You have to choose. This is one reason I eschew system properties for any application configuration. We use ant to build our WAR files for deployment, and find that ant's <filter> (string replacement) capabilities are a very good way to configure for a particular environment. For instance. Want a dev config? Easy: $ ant -Drelease-type=dev war (builds dev WAR) How about a prod config? No problem: $ and -Drelease-type=prod war No muss, no fuss. You maintain either different property values or entirely different configuration files (which is what we have done) for each environment. We have a prod/tomcat-server.xml and dev/tomcat-server.xml, each with separate configuration (dev has only a single db connection in the pool, for instance, while prod has many). - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkg/FHgACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PDqrQCfd8G/RW/fpg0eETU8qLl8XVno C7MAoLgzo2yZFByJ7RCQSPrLip72XA5p =a/25 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
