After that I can happily make changes to the /theme.jar/, the /ThemeManager /will redeploy it and Tomcat will serve the new version of the file. It is as if Tomcat 8.0.33 does not know those files have been extracted from the /theme.zip/ and requires a restart before it will recognise they exist. *Does anyone know why this may be (has there been a change in the way Tomcat manages JSPs recently?), and better yet - does anyone have a solution?* > > I tried to set */development/* to */true/* in */conf/web.xml/*//but it didn't help and I'm not sure that would be suitable for live/./ I have checked my web-apps log files between 8.0.9 and 8.0.33 and can't see any differences.

I made very basic app based on your description but I do not observe such behaviour. Can you provide some simple example that shows the problem? (e.g. on github) Regards, Violeta > /Thanks > > Gavin./ > /
