Hi there,
I've got
Tomcat 5.0 and am using an application which accesses data from a MySQL DB. I have a WAR file (meetingroom.war) of the application, which I wanted to install, but I'm not being able to explode the war file in the webapps folder of Tomcat.
I have a feeling it's because of the
JDBC connection or something.
This snippet below is part of the error I get on starting up Tomcat:
------------------------------------

Here is the entry for this application and database in the server.xml file:
----------------------------------
<Context path="/meetingroom" docBase="./project_builds/meetingroom/web-build" debug="5" reloadable="true" crossContext="true">

</ResourceParams>
</Context>
-----------------------------------
Even when I manually create all the folders in the webapps directory, I still get a 404 error saying that it can't even find any of my resources, JSPs or htmls.
Can anyone help me out? Much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
