[jetty-discuss] Question about deploying web application in jetty.xml

[David C. <Dav...@di...>]

Hi, there:
 
As a newbie to Jetty, currently I'm using Jetty-4.2.24, and running Jetty by
using:
java -jar start.jar etc\jetty.xml; And to deploy some war files copied from
Apache Struts, I added following in etc\jetty.xml:
 
  <Call name="addWebApplication">
    <Arg>/struts/struts-examples/*</Arg>
    <Arg><SystemProperty name="jetty.home"
default="."/>/webapps/struts/struts-examples.war</Arg>
    <Arg><SystemProperty name="jetty.home"
default="."/>/etc/webdefault.xml</Arg>
    <Arg type="boolean">true</Arg> <!-- if true, expand war in temp dir -->
 </Call>
 
However, I just noticed that if I set <Arg type="boolean"> as "true",
everything works fine, however, if I set it as "false", Jetty failed to
deploy it with exception like:
 
14:19:03.243 WARN!! Configuration error on

So, what's the problem? anything wrong from what I did? what should I do?
 
Thanks a lot in advance
