Subject: Re: war file incompletely deployed
This makes sense somehow, but wouldn't a local move or copy from within
the server's filesystem have the same complications?
No, a local mv or rename in a modern file system simply changes the directory 
structure;
no copy is performed.  A copy does stand a chance of being caught in the 
middle, but the
timing window is much, much smaller.  Best to use mv/rename whenever possible.

So 'touch' a .LCK file in a  place outside webapps, copy over the file, when 
copy done
remove the .LCK file.
  On the server a background process is running watching for the .LCK file. 
when it's
gone, it does the 'mv'.
(a mv can imply a copy though when it goes across filesystems on different 
drives).


Would it not be simpler to just rename the .war file, to .war.lck, then copy it to the destination, then rename it (in place) to .war when the copy is finished ?
Tomcat should not even consider .war.lck files, right ?
