            Bug ID: 57892
           Summary: warn to stderr if web.xml is a symbolic link that is
                    ignore
           Product: Tomcat 7
           Version: 7.0.56
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Catalina
          Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org
          Reporter: hau...@acm.org

In private WebXml ContextConfig.getDefaultWebXmlFragment() or also
getWebXmlSource() nothing is found if the web.xml is a symlink.

Please add a message to stderr/catalina.out if the system ignores an existing
web.xml

Background:

In an eclipse installation, I use several configurations in server.xml like

<Context path=""
docBase="/home/me/workspace/project1/" reloadable="true"
workDir="/home/me/workspace/project1/work" ...

If the web.xml is symlink it fails.

Such an error message would have saved me quite some time.
