Unless Tomcat is stopped, this is not good practice. You first make then webapp visible to Tomcat as WebApplication2, then make that disappear and materialize the ROOT webapp. Better to do the renaming as part of the copy to avoid confusing the container or make sure Tomcat is not running. > Feb 1, 2010 6:33:14 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext > resourcesStart > SEVERE: Error starting static Resources > java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Document base > C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\ > Tomcat 6.0\webapps\WebApplication2 does not exist > or is not a readable directory You may well have a WebApplication2.xml file in the conf/Catalina/[host] directory, left over from a previous deployment attempt. Check for that and delete it. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
