Darren,

My bet is that your Tomcat is installed in a "production" mode. What
that means is that it does not re-read the physical files on the web
server after start up for "performance" and "security" reasons.

So you can either stop and start Tomcat after every change, or signal
it to redeploy the web application in question (The mid-tier, which
normally is /arsys) after every change.

You can also opt to alter the config of the server to "autoDeploy"
changes to the web applications too. In the server.xml configuration
file:
<Server ...>
 <Service ....>
   <Engine name=...>
     <!-- This Host is the default Host -->
     <Host name="localhost" debug="0" appBase="webapps"
              unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true">

NOTE: The autoDeploy="true" part. Check your file and see if it is set
to false.

There might also be a setting in the "Loader Component" too. But I
believe that the Host level setting takes precedence over it anyway.
(but I could be wrong about that.)

My question is how do you get Tomcat to recognize the customizations made to
various Mid-Tier .jsp files?  I recently installed Apache Tomcat with
Mid-Tier 7 patch 1 on our Win2k3 test server.  Problem is the customizations
I made previously with ServletExec won't take.  For example on the login.jsp
I commented out the section for the Authentication field and on
login_common.jsp I replaced the standard logo_img variable with a custom
jpg.  This worked no problem with ServletExec.  But those same
customizations won't take on our Tomcat configuration.  The login.jsp page
remains the same as the default configuration out of the box.  I tried
restarting the Tomcat service several times, tried playing with some things
in Tomcat manager like reloading the webapp, all to no avail.  I'm new to
Tomcat so I'm guessing I'm just missing something really simple here.  If
someone can give me a clue or point me in the right direction I'd really
appreciate it.  Thanks.
