A very good point, I'll check exactly what timestamps are being written. -----Original Message----- From: David Delbecq [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 18 December 2006 11:20 To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: JSP's not recompiling
Hi, could this be your problem (considering rsync does set timestamp to the source timestamps and not the current time)? 1) tomcat start, file X.jsp (version 1) has timestamp t 2) remote content management does a modification, remote X.jsp (version 2) has timestamp t+1 3) in the meanwhile, a client request X.jsp on tomcat, jasper build X_jsp.class (version 1) with timestamp t+2 4) remote content management does the rsync operation, tomcat's X.jsp (now version 2) has now timestamp t+1 5) user request X.jsp, jasper compare the X_jsp.class timestamp (t+2) to X.jsp timestamp (t+1) and concludes X_jsp.class (version 1) is more recent than X.jsp (version 2) and so does not recompile. If answer is yes, than you can start fixing your scripts to correctly update timestamps:) Whatever, compare the .class timestamp to the .jsp timestamp and check the .jsp is really timestamped as newer than .class file.
