context.xml

I'm looking to implement a custom Valve and configuring it using META-INF/context.xml. At the moment though, when context.xml is parsed during deployment, Tomcat (6.0.32) dies with a ClassNotFoundException on my custom Valve implementation. I'm under the impression that I'm running into a class loading context issue and I'm not 100% sure I understand it. Is my class not found because it is located in the WEB-INF/classes file and the Context level class loader is unable to locate the class because of the hierarchy? Thanks in advance. You can not load Valve s from inside the webapp class loader.

I am using Spring 3.2.9, Tomcat 6.0.44 I am trying to configure my application's Spring instrumentation provider (e.g. spring-instrumentation.jar) for load-time weaving, when it is deployed on Tomcat. I have a requirement to NOT use: "-javaagent:/path/path/spring-instrument.jar" on the command line to do the configuration. I've read that I can configure the Spring instrumentation by modifying the <Context> element of my application's Tomcat configuration (in either Tomcat's server.xml or my web app's context.xml). Adding the appropriate <Context> element to the server.xml results in my

用DataSource 通过JNDI取得连接问题 ，抛出如下异常： java.lang.RuntimeException: org.apache.tomcat.dbcp.dbcp.SQLNestedException: Cannot create JDBC driver of class '' for connect URL 'null' 原因是：部署webapp应用方式的问题，导致tomcat启动时找不到/META-INF/context.xml文件 往tomcat部署webapp应用有很多方式： 第1种方式： 这种方式最简单，就是在$CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml文件里做如下配置： <Context docBase="D:\java\workspace\JspServletNote\WebContent" path="/JspServletNote" reloadable="true" /> 这种方式，就能导致 tomcat启动时找不到/META-INF/context.xml文件 解决方法就是： 把自个的WebAppProject里的 /META-INF/context.xml 的内容复制到 $CATALINA_BASE/conf/context.xml里或者 $CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml里 参见： http:/

I am working on a web application that allows users to upload attachments. These attachments are stored on a different drive than that of the web application. How can I create an alias (equivalent to Apache HTTP server's aliases) to this drive so that users can download these attachments? Currently I am creating a context file and dumping it in CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost, but it gets randomly deleted every so often. The context file is named attachments.xml and the contents are shown below. I have also read about virtual hosts, but if I understand correctly, then a virtual host is

I'm writing an integration test where an application context xml is initialized during startup. There are several test methods in the test class which make use of a specific bean 'X'(already defined in the xml). My actual requirement is to mock bean X only for one of the test methods. Inside a test method: I tried creating a separate application context using ClassPathXMLApplicationContext with only the mock bean 'M'. Now I have two Application Contexts (AC): 1. One created during test case startup (which contains the actual bean X) and 2. One created using ClassPathXMLApplicationContext

Tomcat documentation says: The locations for Context Descriptors are; $CATALINA_HOME/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/context.xml $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/[webappname]/META-INF/context.xml On my server, I have at least 3 files floating around: 1 ...tomcat/conf/context.xml 2 ...tomcat/Catalina/localhost/myapp.xml 3 ...tomcat/webapps/myapp/META-INF/context.xml What is the order of precedence? For the files you listed, the simple answer assuming you are using all the defaults, the order is (note the conf /Catalina/localhost): ...tomcat/conf/context.xml ...tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost/myapp.xml ..
