OK I just added the appBase attr to a Host in my server.xml. It did get rid of the Tomcat install. folders showing up as webapps, but it isnt' doing exactly what I thought it would do. Now everything in my appBase shows up in my Manager instance as belonging to that Host, when what I want there is only those directories in my appBase that are referenced by Contexts in my particular Host.
At least the old (appBase-less) method retained the logical mapping defined in the Host section. My reading of the Tomcat config docs seemed to indicate that each Host should have it's own Manager Context defined as opposed to having a single Manager instance that can span multiple Hosts. Is this correct? On Mon, Nov 2, 2009 at 10:05 AM, Jonathan Mast <jhmast.develo...@gmail.com>wrote: > You're right, I totally forgot to put appBase attributes in my Host > declarations.
