I am running into an issue deploying an exploded warfile which contains symlinks. This works with standalone Tomcat, but not with JBoss 4.0.2 + embedded Tomcat 5.5 (on RedHat Enterprise 4, JDK 1.5_06).
My exploded war directory contains a symlink to a WEB-INF directory. The TomcatDeployer deploys the webapp, but the ContextConfig cannot find the web.xml file, so it uses the default web.xml and the war's servlets don't get deployed. I get this error: 15:07:45,935 INFO [ContextConfig] Missing application web.xml, using defaults only StandardEngine[jboss.web].StandardHost[localhost].StandardContext[/wfm] Normally you'd fix this by adding a DefaultContext element within the Host of the tomcat config file (deploy/jbossweb-tomcat55.sar/server.xml): <DefaultContext allowLinking="true"/> Unfortunately this does not work - the allowLinking attribute does not get propagated to the Catalina context. The JMX Mbean view of the deployed web app shows that the 'allowLinking' attribute is false - editing the MBean view throws an InvocationTargetException. I also tried adding the allowLinking attribute to the default context file (deploy/jbossweb-tomcat55.sar/context.xml), but that did not work either. So far, the answers I've found involve editing server.xml (which did not seem to work), or adding additional paths for deployment discovery (which i don't want). Also I don't care about portability - this is a UNIX-only app. All of this works with standalone tomcat, so it looks like either a configuration problem or a bug in the tomcat/jboss deployer code. Any ideas? Thanks...
