Problem with Tomcat 9 WAR file to deploy

Q&A regarding installation and issues getting started with Servoy

Problem with Tomcat 9 WAR file to deploy

Postby huber » Tue Oct 15, 2019 12:08 pm

Hi All

We installed Tomcat 9.0.26 on a fresh installation of Windows Server 2019 using Java 1.8.0. Tomcat is starting up as expected. But when we want to deploy a WAR file, there is the WAR file including the path displayed in the field: "Select WAR file to upload". Consequently, this doesn't work.

Anyone knows how to fix this?

Thanks and regards,

any errors in the tomcat log at the moment you press deploy? (or "what doesn't really work")

i guess you could just deploy by copy it manually in the tomcat\webapps folder.

Thanks, Johan, following is the first part of the Catalina log. I replaced my username by <username> in the log. Problem is that instead of having the context name 7r, the context name is here C:Users<username>Desktop7r.war, That of course is wrong and can't work.

You are right, I can deploy the context by putting it in the tomcat/webapps folder. Although I am surprised as I tried exactly that yesterday and it didn't work. May be a restart changed it.

But I can't access the context 7r by entering http:\localhost:8080/7r/servoy-admin or ip-address:8080/7r/servoy-admin in the Browser. I also noticed that there is no .servoy folder yet in my C:\Users\<username>\ folder. But I remember it may be written only when the properties file is the first time saved (after a change).

Re: Problem with Tomcat 9 WAR file to deploy

Postby jcompagner » Tue Oct 15, 2019 6:27 pm

the problem is that your context: context=/C:Users<username>Desktop7r

is completely wrong, isn't there also something where you can specify the context? It seems that the browser sends over your full filename (which is wrong it shouldnt do that!)

Can you use a different browser to upload your war?

because it really just should use the war filename itself, not the full path..

Yes, the path in the context is the problem. I do not know (and did not find) anything about a configuration in Tomcat to "remove" the path from the context part. Will try with another Browser to do the deploy.

Internet Explorer adds the path to the context. Changed to Firefox and all is fine. Another problem was exactly the same as described in the thread viewtopic.php?f=5&t=21577
