I am using Tomcat 5.5.15 w/ jdk1.5.0_06
In my webapp, I have created a context file in ${app.name}/META-INF/context.xml.
If Tomcat is running and I drop a new war file in the webapps dir, Tomcat reads
${app.name}/META-INF/context.xml and creates a new
${catalina.home}/conf/Catlina/${host.name}/${app.name}.xml This seems like the
correct way to do things (not a workaround), because your context is defined
and deployed with your webapp.
>From the Tomcat documentation
>(http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/deployer-howto.html):
"A Context is what Tomcat calls a web application."
You could also define your context in server.xml, but this is discouraged in
the Tomcat docs.

Hi Kevin,
including a context.xml file in META-INF could cure the "disappearing context
file" issue, although it would rather be some kind of workaround: The file
would still be deleted but eventually restored. Any idea how I could configure
tomcat 5.5 to stop from deleting that file?
The other issue remaining is Tomcat trying to deploy an unfinished war file.
Kind regards,
- Christian
