How do you specify the directory for the war file in Tomcat?
In Tomcat, you can specify the directory of the war file by modifying the server.xml configuration file. The specific steps are as follows:
- Open the conf folder in the Tomcat installation directory and locate the server.xml configuration file.
- Specify the path of the war file by adding the
tag inside the tag, for example:
<Context docBase="/path/to/your/warfile.war" path="/yourcontext"/>
The docBase attribute specifies the path of the war file, while the path attribute specifies the access path of the application.
- The file known as server.xml
This way you can specify the directory of the war package to run it in Tomcat.
