Hi,
Where can I find  the Senor Epstein's description of
"what constitutes a deleted webapp"?

I looked everywhere I remembered and I could not find.


I believe he's referring (somewhat facetiously :-) to what I wrote in
an earlier post in this thread.  To find it, you can check the list
archives.  There's one at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/.

Howdy,
This is new functionality to tomcat5.  Senor Epstein's description of
"what constitutes a deleted webapp" is accurate and well-written.

If you happen to think tomcat should refresh its conf directory
periodically or upon some trigger, please feel free to contribute a
patch ;)

Hi,

No, I didn't create the context configuration file under
/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]/.  It was created by Tomcat on the fly.

And


my
webapp wasn't starting up twice, which is good.  Also I can delete that
dir, but
it would be recreated next time when I restart Tomcat5.  I think the
confusion
lies on whether it's user's responsibily or the container's to clean up

the


configuration file after user deleting a context element in server.xml.

In tomcat user-guide:
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/deployer-howto.html,

there


is
nothing about when a context descriptor is created, and what happens if

you


decide to delete a context in your server.xml. It would be nice if the
container
refreshes that directory/recreates all the context descriptors when
server.xml
is modified.  But maybe there is some other setting I don't know of in

5. I


didnt' have this problem with tomcat 4 before.

Thanks!

-Yan

                      I removed the <Context> for that webapp in
conf/server.xml.

Hmmm -- you had a <Context> element for this webapp in server.xml *and* a separate context configuration file? That's redundant, because they serve the same purpose. I'm not sure what would happen in that case -- were you per chance seeing your webapp starting up twice?
