Deploying multiple web projects on Tomcat in Eclipse

[Vivek Alampally]

Hi all,
I need to deploy 2 web projects on Tomcat in Eclipse. So what I need is I want to start project 2 only after project 1 starts. Can this be done, If yes can you please tell me how?

Thanks,
Vivekanand Alampally.

After you declare your Tomcat server, you can add projects to it (right-click on the Tomcat instance in the Servers view and select Add and Remove...). Any project you add will be started when Tomcat is started. Thus both apps will start at the same time.

If you want to ensure that a second app is started only after a first one, then you will have to set things up to have only the first app's project added to Tomcat, and once it is running, then add the second project.
