If you need a different web.xml file for each machine, they you will, by definition, require a different WAR for each machine. There's really nothing you can do about that. Another option would be to configure your application using something other than web.xml.... but then you've just moved the problem to another file. We use a file in the user's home directory (called .ant.properties) that includes machine-specific environmental information. To deploy, we grab the source from CVS and run "ant install" which does everything, including merging the machine-specific configuration into the WAR and deploying it. We have a small number of production machines, so this isn't a big deal for us. If we had a large number, we'd just further script the process by allowing the WAR creation to be parameterized by, say, command-line switches (which they really are, since you can define any ant property right on the command-line). Hope that helps, - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkkQyYEACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PBzXQCdH4lqz0vHbGOChbEJIihowz50 2lsAoK6obiLTx09nSb7+8taZxxITlpjM =GAv3 -----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]
