> You have the following virtual host: > <Host name="www.maxyexpress.co.uk" appBase="webapps"> > <Context path="" docBase="d:\wwwroot\maxyexpress.co.uk\wwwroot" /> > <Alias>maxyexpress.co.uk</Alias> > </Host> > This means that the actual docBase may end up to be: > %CATALINA_HOME%\webapps\d:\wwwroot\maxyexpress.co.uk\wwwroot Don't think so. On Windows, a leading forward or backward slash after the drive prefix (d:, in this case) indicates an absolute path. The JVM will figure that out properly. > I suggest following the Wiki entry above and setting your > virtual host up as follows: > <Host name="www.maxyexpress.co.uk" > appBase="D:/wwwroot/maxyexpress.co.uk/wwwroot" > unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true" > xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false"> > <Alias>maxyexpress.co.uk</Alias> > </Host> The above appBase setting should probably be "D:/wwwroot/maxyexpress.co.uk", coupled with naming the default webapp's .war file or directory ROOT (case sensitive) rather than wwwroot, located under the appBase directory. Much more along the lines of current Tomcat good practice. > the slashes are / not \ (even on Windows). That part shouldn't matter, but forward slashes certainly avoid confusion with regular expression escapes that might appear elsewhere in .xml files. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
