Can I use symbolic links to define contexts

Can I use symbolic links to define contexts

2004-01-23 - By Glanville, Jay

Hello all

Can I use a symbolic links to help me define a web application /
context?

For example, if this is my webapps directory:
admin -> admin.0.19.0
admin.0.19.0

The reason that I'm asking is in Tomcat 5, I'm getting the following
exception being reported in my logs/catalina.out log:

SEVERE: Error deploying web application directory admin
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

Source code of java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

: Context path /admin must match the
directory or WAR file name: admin.0.19.0
at
org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHostDeployer.install(StandardHostDeploy
er.java:293)
at
org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHost

Source code of org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHost

(StandardHost.java:859)
at
org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig

Source code of org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig

(HostConfig.java
:723)

Our company likes this usage of links as it allows us to quickly switch
between versions of our application.

Why would I be getting this exception? What can I do to enable this
behaviour?

Thanks

JDG
