--------------------------------------
Yep, I verified the original issue both in 1.0.2 & trunk but the repo location didn't default to the Tomcat location for me. I tried setting appserver.base & appserver.home to ${catalina.home}, and the data/repositories/internal were just appended to the value of appserver.base/appserver.home. And when I didn't set these variables, the repo location defaulted to /data/repositories/internal.

Wendy Smoak commented on MRM-827:
---------------------------------
Also not in favor-- the directory I configure should be the directory that gets used, with nothing appended.
Has anyone confirmed the original issue, which seems to be not so much that the Tomcat install got deleted, but that the repository location _defaulted_ to the same directory as the Tomcat location?

Brett Porter commented on MRM-827:
----------------------------------
I don't think this is wise, you lose the flexibility of specifying what you actually want. It also doesn't help if "repository" under the root is actually an important directory.
The default configuration should not point at a dangerous location. If someone explicitly creates a repo in a bad spot, and sets the permissions to be able to be deleted, and hits delete, and opts to delete the contents beyond the warning... they're probably pretty intent on deleting it :)

Brett Porter closed MRM-827.
----------------------------
Assignee: Brett Porter
Resolution: Won't Fix
Fix Version/s: (was: 1.2)
I think we've confirmed the default is sensible and not harmful and put enough prevention in place to help out.

Yeah, this was what I've been thinking too.. and that is why we have the 'Confirm Delete' page :-)
