I have setup multiple instances of Tomcat set up and running with a batch

  • 0

I have setup multiple instances of Tomcat set up and running with a batch file. Unfortunately when I logoff Windows the tomcat server stops since the batch file can’t keep running. I would like to set these up as Windows services, but I get the following error:

The Apache service named reported the following error: >>> Warning: DocumentRoot [C:/Tomcat/webapps/pilot] does not exist.

I have the Windows service to execute the following:
C:\app\pilot\bin\tomcat7.exe //RS//TomcatPilot

What am I missing? How can I get this tomcat service to look at c:\app\pilot instead of the default?

    Inside your CATALINA_HOME/conf/server.xml there´s a section with the entry
    <Context path="/myApp" docBase="dir">
    Using this entry, you could configure to where your Tomcat Instance will load “myApp” from “dir”.
    You could also configure within the <Host> tag, but you will find more documentation avalilable with the Context tag.
    Hope this can help you.
