http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=37523 Summary: Virtual Host ROOT context ignores docBase value Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.5.12 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows XP Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: Unknown AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] We are often developing a number of applications simultaneously, typically running from the Root directory so we use the Virtual Host functionality in Tomcat exclusively. We develop on Windows workstations and our problem occurs on both Win 2000 and Win XP. Prior to upgrading to Tomcat 5.5.12, we would put our web app into a directory (eg d:\wwwroot\test), use the Admin console to create a virtual host with the appBase pointing to this directory (d:/wwwroot/test), then create a root context with a docBase of "./" and a path of "/". This all worked perfectly. Since upgrading to Tomcat 5.5.12, we find that this process works as before, until we restart Tomcat. Then the application fails to work and the following appears in the Tomcat error log: WARNING: A docBase D:\wwwroot\test\. inside the host appBase has been specified, and will be ignored 16/11/2005 11:29:29 org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext resourcesStart SEVERE: Error starting static Resources java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Document base d:\wwwroot\test\ROOT does not exist or is not a readable directory I can provide a suitable example application for testing if required. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
