That's a really, really bad idea - the hosts can easily scribble on each other when expanding war files. Don't do it, even in development. > (it is a development environment with CVS and I would have > to change many things to accomplish one webapp folder per > virtual host). Much better to spend the effort up front to do things the right way than have to always wonder if the cause of strange behavior is due to having an invalid configuration. > <Context path="" docBase="foo" reloadable="true" /> As always, don't put <Context> elements in server.xml. The above got you double deployment of the foo webapp, once as foo, once as the default. Why do people invite problems when it's so easy to do things properly? > <Context path="" docBase="bar" reloadable="true" /> Same comment as above. > with this I avoid full apps initialization on Tomcat Startup No, you don't - each app has to be initialized for each <Host> (or in your case, multiple times for each <Host>). All you might have avoided is expanding the .war files, which for development purposes you didn't need in the first place. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
