Thanks again Warren. I guess I must be approaching this from the wrong perspective of what the designers originally intended.
I am hoping to find a place for a context.xml to live where it will never get deleted. That a customer can change and when we give them a new war file, the context.xml changes that they have made will stick around. Is there a way to do this that you know of? -Dennis -----Original Message----- From: Warren Pace [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, January 31, 2006 5:19 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: RE: context.xml > > From: "Klotz Jr, Dennis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: 2006/01/30 Mon PM 08:28:10 EST > To: "Tomcat Users List" <users@tomcat.apache.org> > Subject: RE: context.xml > > Thanks Warren for the reply. > > Wouldn't that version of the file be deleted when I undeploy? > If you're using the manager app to "un-deploy" the entire folder gets deleted.
