Hi, I am remembering that running straight from war was giving me some troubles and unpacking the war was the solution. However, I do not remember what kind of troubles they were and with which GS version.

Tomcat can run the webapp straight out of the .war, and it can be set to auto-expand on deploy as well. > For the SLD changes, check out the GeoServer REST API http://docs.geoserver.org/2.0.x/en/user/extensions/rest/index.html Regards, Paul -----Original Message----- From: David Rush [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, 6 May 2011 11:07 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Geoserver-users] GeoServer Strategy? I've downloaded GeoServer 2.0.3 (war file version), expanded it manually, and copied the expanded files into a geoserver directory under an existing Tomcat's webapps directory, and everything appears to have worked perfectly. Kudos to the GeoServer folks for such an easy deployment. I've played around with the layers a bit, and done some hand-tweaked experimentation with an .sld file. But I don't see the results of my edits (in an OpenLayers viewer) until I go into GeoServer admin, select the style, and click "Submit". Is there a way to get GeoServer to start using a changed .sld automatically?
