I am experiencing an annoying (but not show-stopping) issue while
trying to use the Catalina ReloadTask Ant task.
I am currently using Ant 1.7, JDK 1.5 (OS X) and Tomcat 5.5.23.
Whenever I make a modification to a JSP, I usually do an 'ant reload'
to push the changes to the build/ directory and force the container to
reload the application.
However, when I refresh the JSP in the browser, the changes don't take
effect, even if I clear the browser cache, etc. I checked the content
of the build/ directory, the modified file has been copied there. It
is almost like the container isn't reloading the web app.
I recently moved from JDK 1.4.2, Tomcat 5.0.17 and Ant 1.6.5. I
didn't experience the problem with that configuration.
Any ideas? I've included my build.xml file at the bottom for reference.
thanks
