I am trying to deploy the WAR file from my Intellij to Tomcat that is on a remote host. I am using Tomcat remote Run/Debug Configuration. A Tomcat version is 9.0.39.
I am gettin the error:
01-Nov-2020 20:47:18.741 WARNING [Catalina-utility-2] org.apache.catalina.startup.HostConfig.deployDescriptor A docBase [/home/u/.local/opt/tools/tomcat/teachers/teachers-0.0.1.war] inside the host appBase has been specified, and will be ignored
A bigger part of the error message is at the end of my question. The WAR file is successfully uploaded to the remote host, extracted and DDL database insertions are automatically done as they should. But a site is not served.
Here there are files that I have configured in fresh Tomcat. Please help me how to fix the `` issue.
