http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32282 Summary: Uninstaller should not remove webapps/root Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.5.4 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows XP Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: Native:Packaging AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tomcat just played a nice trick on me and wired out my webapps/root directory full of years' worth of digital photography with no recent backups. I am not amused. I was simply trying to upgrade from Tomcat 5.5.1 to 5.5.4 so I uninstalled 5.5.1, it prompted me whether I wished to remove the entire directory, I hit NO because I knew I had made modifications since installation but I guess it *assumed* webapps/root was unmodified and wiped it out. Guys, you should really fix this sort of thing. Either do a simple check to see whether webapps/root has been modified or don't delete anything inside webapps to begin with. Please! I'm setting this issue to a higher priority because it involved data loss. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
