I try to replace an application via the HTTPManager with a newer version (newer .war file) as follows: 1. Click the remove link (http://localhost:8080/manager/remove?path=/<myapp>) 2. The application disappears from the list, however the /webapps/<myapp> directory still exists. 3. Delete the /webapps/<myapp> directory manually 4. If I try to install the new .war file using: Install a webapp Path:/<myapp> War-URL:jar:file:/C:/test/tomcat.4.0.2/<myapp>.war!/ I get the follwing error: FAIL - Encountered exception java.lang.IllegalStateException: zip file closed
If I stop Tomcat, start it again and repeat step 4, it works and I get the following message: OK - Installed application at context path /<myapp> If I only perform step 1, 2 and 4 I get the following message: OK - Installed application at context path /<myapp> However, the files in the /<myapp> directory remain unchanged What do I miss or is my assumption wrong that I can replace an existing application with a newer version w/o restarting Tomcat? Thanks a lot JB __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Try FREE Yahoo!
