Re: war file incompletely deployed
This makes sense somehow, but wouldn't a local move or copy from within the server's filesystem have the same complications? In other words: would a tomcat stop/start be required in any situation to be on the safe side? -- Christoph Am 07.11.2016 um 18:31 schrieb Caldarale, Charles R: From: Christoph P.U.

Once done tomcat autodeploys the .war file into the webapps subdirectory with the name of the war file (without extension).
