You are telling all there is about your situation, how about you explain your constraints, and why they are so. > I was trying to come up with a way to do this without having > to rename a bunch of stuff.

If you cannot have more than 1 tomcat in the enterprise, then you should schedule downtime for the production system, to do your testing. Undeploy the prod.war and deploy the test.war or dev.war. When done, undeploy then deploy the prod.war. > > Thanks, > Susan > > -----Original Message----- > From: Caldarale, Charles R > Sent: Friday, January 21, 2011 1:15 PM > To: Tomcat Users List > Subject: RE: Setup Advice Needed: dev vs. test vs. production > > > From: Susan G.
