My appologies if I sent this twice, I sent it as the body of the subscribe
originally, not sure if that works.

In any case:

When I use manager/reload?path=... it doesn't reparse web.xml, but does
reload classes. Am I missing something or ... Everything else I have done is
working fine.

I am new to this, so its likely a configuration problem. First of all, let
me say that Tomcat is a TRUELY WONDERFUL PIECE OF SOFTWARE, THANKS TO ALL
WHO WORK ON IT!!!

 Relevant facts:

- Running Tomcat 4.0.3 on Windows 2000 Professional.
- I created my own Service definition by copying relevent parts of others in
server.xml. (text available, but not included here to cut down on the size.)
- I use a different directory structure for my webapps than the one inside
Tomcat
- I copied the manager app directory (basically just web.xml in the WEB-INF
subdirectory) from the TomCat 4.0 webapps to mine.
- There are no configurations in my server.xml for applications, I rely on
the dynamic loading process where Tomcat loads anything as an application
which looks like one in the webapps directory, hence reloadable=true is NOT
set.
- Reload works always reports success, but changes to web.xml do not show up
(like adding a new servlet).
- Shutting down and restarting does reload web.xml (obviously)
- Installing a new .class file into the webapps directories DOES NOT show up
in the appllication unless a manager/reload is done.

Conclusion: web.xml is not reloaded, .class files are.

I have searched various online bugs and this email list and find no reports
of this problem.

I suppose the real solution is to put the configuration in server.xml, but I
am reporting this anyway incase someone wants to fix it or it is a symptom
of a
more serious problem.

This is not a major annoyance, just a minor problem.
