https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=51294 Philippe Busque pbus...@mediagrif.com changed: What|Removed |Added Status|RESOLVED|REOPENED Resolution|FIXED | --- Comment #9 from Philippe Busque pbus...@mediagrif.com 2012-02-02 15:05:37 UTC --- This if is a major show stopper. It was working fine before, why 'fix' it? We are currently investigating into upgrading from Tomcat 6 to Tomcat 7. We have HUNDREDS of Tomcat application running. Some of require to be able to manipulate the webapps content at runtime. Due to the amount of instance to manage, we link our war outside the webapp for better management. This 'fix' break any Tomcat server that require an unpacked war and use any management tools to manage their configuration and data. As mentioned by another user, there should be an option to allow unpacking a WAR located outside of the Webapps. It was mentioned in another thread the reason it isn't so is it complicate the autodeploy. Well, make those feature mutually exclusive. You cannot use autoDeploy if unpackWarOutsideWebapp is true. I know we don't use autoDeploy for security reason. We're strongly thinking of stopping the Tomcat 7 migration project and stick to Tomcat 6 until the EOL if this 'fix' is not rollabacked or offer a workaround. Nowhere in the documentation of Tomcat 6 was it mentioned the war need to be in the Webapp to be unpacked. I haven't found any specification mentioning that this has to be that way too. So changing this behaviour without first consulting people and on an haunch really was a bad move. If it's working, don't fix it. Right now, it's broken for a tomcat instance fully relying on configuration files to manage context and deployment. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=51294 Mark Thomas ma...@apache.org changed: What|Removed |Added Severity|minor |enhancement --- Comment #10 from Mark Thomas ma...@apache.org 2012-02-02 16:24:46 UTC --- (In reply to comment #9) Nowhere in the documentation of Tomcat 6 was it mentioned the war need to be in the Webapp to be unpacked. I haven't found any specification mentioning that this has to be that way too. So changing this behaviour without first consulting people and on an haunch really was a bad move. The Tomcat documentation for the host element has contained variations of the following since the 6.0.0 tag (and probably earlier but I didn't go back into the 5.5.x series): quote upackWARs: Set to true if you want web applications that are placed in the appBase directory as web application archive (WAR) files to be unpacked into a corresponding disk directory structure, false to run such web applications directly from a WAR file. /quote The Servlet specification is quite clear that applications should not rely on running in expanded form on a file system. If I recall correctly, it mentions that they might be located in a database. The behaviour if the WAR is placed outside the appBase was undefined until 7.0.12 where it was defined that they would not be expanded due, as you say, to complications this creates for auto-deployment. The simplest work-around is to deploy as an expanded directory rather than as a WAR or deploy into the appBase. I'm moving this issue to an enhancement. Any patch that addresses this needs to take account of the various edge cases as per the referenced discussions. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=51294 --- Comment #3 from Mark Thomas ma...@apache.org 2011-06-02 11:22:40 UTC --- The unpackWAR option of the context is so rarely used I had actually forgotten it even existed. http://tomcat.markmail.org/thread/rk6fw5ooohgiqklu explains why it was introduced. Even then it was as an override to unpackWARs at the host level. The original intention, the current implementation and the current documentation are all different. For now, I'm going to take the easy way out which is to align the documentation with the current implementation. I'm not against changing the implementation to reflect the original intention but that probably needs some discussion on the users list as to what behaviour makes most sense. I don't see any of the WAR unpacking options being changed to trigger the unpacking of an external WAR in the appBase without a strong use case that can't be met by alternative configurations. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org

This is true for 5.5.x, 6.0.x and 7.0.x. Unpacking WARs from outside the appBase into the appBase should be possible but adds complexity to the autoDeploy process that I am not convinced is worth it.

What about Context Container documentation:
unpackWAR: If true, Tomcat will unpack all compressed web applications before
running them. If not specified, the default value is true.
When I use Context path=/app docBase=${home}/war/app.war/ I can't find
unpacked WAR content in appBase and see only part of WAR in WORK directory
(only libs and something from META-INF)
