Because: - it is unnecessary - it makes the auto deploy code significantly more complex for little / no gain - it often results in double deployment Another option - given the fixing the broken web app doesn't seem to be acceptable - is disable autoDeploy and deployOnStartup and hard code the context paths in server.xml Mark --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
