Don't keep the application in the <Host> appBase - locate it outside of Tomcat's directory structure, and use the docBase attribute of the <Context> element to tell Tomcat where to find it. Replace the .war file at your leisure, and then do a touch of the .xml file to trigger an application redeployment. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
