workDir in Tomcat

843841Apr 15 2005 — edited Apr 15 2005
Hello,

Can someone explain me what is workDir in Tomcat (server.xml)?

I have a separate context for the webapp but for some reason my app won't find a connection string in the server.xml. I susspect its because of the settings that I use for workDir but I am not sure because I have no clue what it does.

This is how I declare the context
	<Context displayName="Bob The Builder" workDir="tomcat_work\Catalina\localhost\btb" path="/btb" docBase="btb" debug="0" reloadable="true">
Thanks
