02:47.28andrewacltI'm running Tomcat 6.0.18, Java 1.5 for OS X, and OS X. Is there a way to access the /manager server inside eclipse?
02:49.13andrewacltI can see hello world type apps, but when I got to http://localhost:8080/manager/ I get a 404
02:49.34andrewacltI read somewhere that eclipse uses it's own setting files instead of the default tomcat ones?
03:03.43andrewacltAny help would be most appreciated :)
03:23.57snailandrewaclt: i'd start by looking in the eclipse settings and help

11:23.48jonkrihow and where can i specify to tomcat that when someone accesses /webstart i want that directory to be a symlink to /var/jars?
11:24.34jonkri"/webstart" being a "http" directory
11:26.31jonkrialso, it it possible to "mount" the content of /var/jars into an existing "webstart" directory, so that the files in a physical webstart directory is joined with the files in the /var/jars directory?
11:36.41jonkrior rather, so that any /webstart/*.jnlp file is taken from one folder, and that any other file is taken from /var/jars...
11:36.45jonkrithanks in advance!

14:52.57*** join/#tomcat Olangu (n=andreas@95.209.38.250)
14:55.14OlanguHello! Im having trouble overriding the default context "", I want it to point to "web" or "." instead of "ROOT". I've tried to edit both context.xml and server.xml, nothing helps. Tomcat 6.0.18.
14:56.40OlanguAnd as a second question, is there any way to _not_ include every directory as context in my Host, just ones i specify?
14:57.26OlanguJava 6.0.13, Tomcat 6.0.18, RHEL4
15:02.40jasonbhi Dwayne_Hicks!  How've you been?
15:02.43MHSLOlangu, create a context file named ROOT.xml and change the docBase
15:03.20MHSLOlangu, no, you can simply point the appBase to an empty directory and create a context file for each of your webapp
15:04.47OlanguMHSL, would that mean that i need to copy that ROOT.xml-file to every conf/engine/hostname/-dir?
15:05.57MHSLprobably, never tried multi hostname environment
15:06.35OlanguHow come that if i specify <Context path="" doc-base="web" override="true"/> does not work?

15:29.46OlanguAfter some more research I found deployOnStartup, is set to false will probably let me define my own ROOT context. But where or how do I specify what contexts to acually start?
15:36.06jonkriproblem: i want to include jar files from outside of my war to be part of the website. is there a way i can create symlinks by configurating tomcat?
15:43.37OlanguContinuing to answer my own questions, defining the contexts in the server.xml works like a charm.

19:29.41alberticohi, i am using ubuntu 8.10, with java-sun-6-jdk 1.6.0_10, and tomcat 6.0.18... how can I manage the tomcat startup parameters?  Is there a config file with those parameters?
19:29.51pfnsetenv.sh
19:30.21alberticopfn, I have been looking for it... but can't find it...
19:30.26pfnmake it
19:30.29pfngoogle
19:31.56alberticopfn, oh... I guess it should go on the same place where the startup.sh and the other scripts are located, right?

19:46.08alberticopfn, what is the difference between CATALINA_OPTS and JAVA_OPTS?
19:46.19pfnalbertico, read catalina.sh
19:47.29*** join/#tomcat oxi_ (n=oxi@int-34-117.mobile.unibas.ch)
19:56.18alberticopfn, I did, but it says the same thing: "Java runtime options used when the "start"... so I was wondering if one could put the parameters on any of them regardless, or if there is a specific reason why we should use one vs the other
19:56.37pfnalbertico, you didn't read very carefully
19:56.44pfncatalina_opts and java_opts are distinctly different

21:42.53alberticoI created and edited the setenv.sh file, but tomcat starts without the parameters defined in there
21:49.39alberticowhat is the syntax for the setenv.sh file on linux?
21:49.50pfnlike any other sh script
21:52.07alberticoso, it must have the shell header: #!/bin/sh
21:52.12pfnno
21:52.18pfnit's read as a . script
21:52.27pfngrep setenv.sh catalina.sh
21:52.46alberticopfn, those files you mention have the #!/bin/sh header
21:54.42alberticodoes the CATALINA_OPTS option is defined using the export statement?
21:55.06pfnno
21:56.36alberticois the following line correct?
21:56.38alberticoCATALINA_OPTS="-server -Xms48M -Xmx256M -XX:SoftRefLRUPolicyMSPerMB=36000 -XX:MaxPermSize=128m"
21:56.48pfnyes
21:57.50alberticowell, but the /etc/init.d/tomcat6 script is not using those options
21:58.27alberticoI check the tomcat process and it is running with the -user parameter
21:59.03pfnthe problem is that you're using the package that comes with ubuntu
21:59.13pfnit's very possible that it ignores setenv.sh
