You should use deploy command or hot deploy(just copy your app to deloy folder like in tomcat)  to deploy  your application following http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC22/deploying-and-undeploying-applications.html

And in geronimo, tomcat is in $your_geronimo_install_Dir\repository\org\apache\tomcat

Your web app structure seems fine(geronimo web app structure same as tomcat, just an extra geronimo-web.xml. which is geronimo specific deployment plan), i recommend your can use Geronimo Eclipse plugin in eclipse to simplify your develop work, you can install GEP follwoing  http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC21/how-to-install-geronimo-eclipse-plugin.html, and how to develop in it follwoing http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC21/how-to-use-geronimo-eclipse-plugin.html#HowtoUseGeronimoEclipsePlugin-DeployRunUndeployandRedeployanApplication.

You can find out more help from Geronimo 2.1 doc link: http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC21/ in your development process.

Hello folks,

With a newbe questions/request:

Can anybody refer me to any document/link which indicate me which are the steps to do a manual deployment without using the deployment tool (deploy ) ?

I'm using Geronimo 2.1.3 with Tomcat 6

I tried to follow the oldie/classic example of building a dynamic project by hand (no IDE's, nor deploy tool at all) just using the java, javac and jar command line tools.

So I tried to manually define the basic directory deployment structure shown in 4.X, 5.X versions of Tomcat:

webapps
--MyApp_Directory
---WEB-INF
----web.xml
----geronimo-web.xml
----lib
----classes
----com
----example
-------web
----------classA.class
-------model
----------classB.class
 
But I couldn't find any "tomcat" directory in Geronimo installation directory which I can define inside that structure.

So the question is .... am I assuming correctly that I can manually define the deployment structure as I can do it in older versions of Tomcat?
Or do I have to use the deployment tool (deploy) in order to manually deploy any application ?

Any guidance would be very appreciated.
Regards
Carlos
