This email is a support-related question that did not get an answer from
the tomcat-user group.=20
I apologize for a support-related question on the dev group, but I hope
that the "experts :)" might be able to help, if there's some spare time
. . .
=20
I'm a developer for a small hosting company and host Java-enabled sites
on a windows server.
We use IIS, jk2, and Tomcat to serve Java.
=20
The problem we have is that every time the Tomcat server.xml is touched
(new site, new context, etc), we have to restart Tomcat, and that
affects every site we host.=20
=20
We are committed to Tomcat and want to solve our problem without
switching to a different container.=20
=20
First, can this issue be resolved?=20
Currently in Tomcat 4.x and/or Tomcat 5 the /admin tool doesn't seem to
be quite "production ready" for everyday use.
Are there any plans to significantly upgrade this?=20
=20
Could we replace IIS with Apache (mod_jk2), in the hopes that there
might be a way to point Apache Virtual Hosts at Tomcat Contexts, instead
of Tomcat Virtual Hosts - although I'm not sure how this could even be
done.
=20
Any help in this regard, (or suggestions for a different servlet
container . . .) would be greatly appreciated.
