Overview
The geronimo-web.xml deployment plan is used to deploy web applications consisting of Java Servlet Pages (JSP) and servlets to to Geronimo, and optionally can be used to configure the web server (i.e., Tomcat or Jetty) where the Web application is going to be deployed.
Packaging
The geronimo-web.xml deployment plan can be packaged as follows:
- Embedded in a WAR file. In this case, a
geronimo-web.xmlfile must be placed in the /WEB-INF directory of the WAR, which is the same place where theweb.xmlfile must be located. - Maintained separately from the WAR file. In this case, the path to the file must be provided to the appropriate Geronimo deployer (e.g., command-line or console). Note that in this case, the filename can be named something other than
geronimo-web.xmlbut must adhere to the same schema. - Embedded in an enterprise application EAR file. In this case, the high-level element <web-app> can be embedded in the EAR file's
geronimo-application.xmlfile, or the actualgeronimo-web.xmlfile must be placed in the /META-INF directory of the EAR, which is the same location as theapplication.xmlfile.
