Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

["GW Brown, Information Systems and Computing" <>]

Hi Lutz,

Did you also set 'deploy.context.dir'? This is where the context xml will 
be copied for automatic installation - may need to check permissions here 
as well. On my Windows box:
 <TOMCAT_DIR>/conf/Catalina/localhost
but can differ according to Tomcat installation.
