You're right that applications that have been hot deployed can't be redeployed using the deployer tool. But they can be redeployed by replacing the file in the deploy directory. I think the moral of the story is to pick the deployment method that best matches your development and/or maintenance practices and stick to it :-)
There's a bit of doc on hot deploy at: http://opensource.atlassian.com/confluence/oss/display/GERONIMO/Hot+deployment Best wishes, Paul On 6/12/06, Bryan Noll <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I believe that you can, but it is not the 'recommended' way of deploying applications with Geronimo. Someone more experienced with the deployer who has thought through it more thoroughly than I will have to say why, but one thing that comes to mind immediately is the ability to 're-deploy' with the tool wouldn't exists if you just drop a file in a directory. --Bryan Afkham Azeez wrote: > Hi, > I'm a Geronimo newbie.
