I've been running Tomcat since version 4. Today, running 7.0.12, I
decided to define a non-standard context, and I can't get it to work
after carefully following all the instructions in the documentation and
doing what all my searching confirmed I should be doing.
My web app is deployed at $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/filePort. I've been
reaching it at http://myHost/filePort. Now I want to have a context of
/mbp/filePort, because I want the web app to run on three separate
Tomcat instances behind an apache server, using mod_jk to route to each
Tomcat based on the first part of the context path.
So I have the file
$CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost/mbp#filePort.xml, and inside this
file is the following XML
<Context >
<WatchedResource>WEB-INF/web.xml</WatchedResource>
</Context>
In server.xml I have Engine "Catalina" and Host "localhost" defined,
with no Context defined. I have no Context defined anywhere else. The
appBase for Host "localhost" is defined as "webapps".
However, the web app is still reachable at http://myHost/filePort and
not at http://myHost/mbp/filePort. For the latter URL, Tomcat reports
that the requested resource is not available.
Even though it's not recommended, I tried defining a Context element in
server.xml, inside the Host element, with path="/mbp/filePort" and
docBase="filePort" but I got the same result.
Presumably I'm missing something here, but I've done what the
documentation says to do, and it doesn't work.
