Ok, thanks for clarifying that for me.
Can I safely delete the exploded files if tomcat is still running as
well? In that case, I could do it always, without checking if tomcat is
running.
My use case is that we want to install war files packaged as rpms. The
rpm simply puts the war file in the webapps directory, When a new rpm is
installed, the rpm mechanism will remove the old war file and put a new
war file in place, but will not cleanup the exploded directory. I can
change my rpms to delete the exploded directory as well, but it would be
more difficult if I have to add a script to my rpms to check if tomcat
is running or not.
thanks again,
Jan Van Besien
