Deployment of custom dfs services on tomcat server

Hi All,

I want to deploy the dfs custom services on tomcat application server . in deployment guide I have seen 2 steps who are require to deploy the service on the tomcat server

1. Deploy the war file

2. Make changes for context path in server.xml file.

I have completed both steps properly but services are not up and running I start debugging this issue and find the problem is related to server.xml file .This file takes only one context path at a time so when we enter the context path for cutom service the OOTB dfs services not up and running. So the problem is at one time there is only one service is running .

I am surely missing something in configuration but i am not able to find what it is in deployment guide or in other documentation .

Any one have idea regarding this issue ?

What context path are you using for your custom service? I'm guessing you're using something far too close, or the same as, the OoB DFS. You need to use something totally different.

what exactly u want to say by totally different when server.xml file will not support 2 different context path how could this thing matter ???

A few points.

1. What version of Tomcat are you using? if > 4 then you should be using context.xml

2. Tomcat will support any number of contexts. See the Tomcat documentation.

3. Can you provide a sample of what youe have tried and which hasn't worked?

download the DCO (Documentum Client for Outlook) install guide. That explains how to install the web services on tomcat with DFS also. I think I got 6.5sp2 version working. DCO is/was a right royal pain so I don't like to think about July 2010 to much!!

In deployment guide they are telling to mark the entry in the server.xml not in the context.xml .I will try it to put the entry in the context.xml . My tomcat version is 6 .
