web context location for Ubuntu?

[Rob Langlands]

Hi

Can anyone tell me the typical location/directory to store the CF files
for the web context on a Ubuntu 11/Railo/Tomcat/Apache installation?

I've seen all different locations to install, so that's confusing me.

thanks,
Rob

If you are asking for where the tomcat6 looks for which files to serve (by default):

/var/lib/tomcat6/webapps

the ROOT directory should be your default context and you can define other context's there as well (ex: hudson).

To install Railo onto the built in tomcat you can place the war file from the Railo site into the webapps dir and it will auto-expand. If you change the name of the war before you copy it to be ROOT.war it will deploy to the ROOT context of the tomcat server.
