I do not have the catalina directory in the Tomcat folder. In this case where can i find application specific context.xml file?

Question

I have two projects with working server as Tomcat . From their website ,I came to know that application specific context.xml files are located inside the catalina/localhost directory.

I do not have the catalina directory in the Tomcat folder. I have installed Tomcat with netbeans. In this case where can I locate the context.xml for each application ?

Note : This question may be linked to this question but they are different

Answer 1

I'm not sure with your question, but if you are referring to each specific application folder, you can find it under :

work\Catalina\localhost\{yourappwebcontext}

Otherwise you are referring to $CATALINA_HOME or $CATALINA_BASE which is actually your tomcat installation path. You can set this in your environment variables also, ie :

c:/program files/apacheTomcatFoundation/ApacheTomcat7.0.22

Answer 2

the website says In the $CATALINA_BASE/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/context.xml.default file: the Context element information will be loaded by all webapps of that host. I do not have engine name in the conf directory
