There is only one version of tomcat on the system. The web.xml is the one I found in the conf folder for tomcat and the login is done programmatically. As for why the context element is missing in it I don't know, but I've never had to touch it either, I'm also only using one AccessLogValve I must've uncommented the other. As for the possibility of proxy caching/firewall issues I'll test for that later but I really doubt that is the issue. (I have emptied the webapp folder and connected to the server. It served a blank page) On 22 February 2011 04:23, Caldarale, Charles R <chuck.caldar...@unisys.com>wrote: > > From: angelicos [mailto:angeli...@gmail.com] > > Subject: Re: Tomcat won't serve newly created files > > > the reason I know that tomcat is serving the wrong app > > version is because the login page for the updated app is > > different to the one tomcat is serving along with several > > other pages served after logging in, and there are no > > others apps deployed in the webapp folder. > > One possibility is that you have a ROOT.xml in conf/Catalina/localhost that > defines a different docBase for your webapp. (This was mentioned > previously, but you didn't respond to it.) > > Are you sure you're using the same Tomcat that you place the updated webapp > in?
