I have an expanded-war app where it will initially auto-deploy (ie.

new.war file re-expanded without restarting Tomcat.
If I make changes to the app and create a new.war file, the only way I
can get it to re-deploy is if I remove the existing directory under
webapps then shutdown/restart Tomcat. If I delete the directory and move
a new .war file into /webapps while TC is running, it's not automatically
expanded. I've tried removing the app via the TC manager first, but it
still won't auto-deploy. If I simply rename the .war file while it's in
the /webapps directory, it's immediately deployed with the new directory
name w/o restarting TC. In a nutshell, if I use the same .war name, it
won't redeploy unless I restart TC. I'm using the out-of-the-box
server.xml, where unpackWARs="true" and autoDeploy="true" for localhost.
Is there no way to 'hot' deploy an existing app the way I'd like without
restarting Tomcat? I've looked at the documentation and searched the
archives/Internet. In almost all cases, the last step is to 'restart
Tomcat'. My goal is to have automatic continuous-integration, including
auto-deployment. Having to manually restart TC each time throws a wrench
into that process.
Thanks

Hello Mark, i u r using: http://localhost:8080/manager then this works 4

http://localhost:8080/manager/install?path=<webapp> where "<webapp>" means

"re-install" using the /manager webapp and "hot" deploy works w/o bouncing
tc. hope this helps, david
