Changing Deployment Descriptor Elements

Use

When you deploy the Web application in the structure of the Web server in your own enterprise, you must adapt the Deployment Descriptor web.xml file for this structure to your own needs.

Recommendation

We also advise you to store the .cap files with the device properties temporarily in another directory for test purposes – for example, when adding new devices. To do this, you must edit the XML document web.xml containing the parameters of the Deployment Descriptor element <servlet>.

Procedure

Open the XML document web.xml, stored in the WEB-INF sub-directory of the root directory, in an appropriate Editor – either an XML Editor or Microsoft Notepad.

Enter your changes – for example, enter a new path for the root directory.

Save your changes.

Caution

After you change the Deployment Descriptor you must execute the Java Servlet Engine again.

Result

You have customized your Web application and tailored the deployment of the Web application to your own enterprise.+
