How should "autoDeploy" be set for an exploded app ?
Hello,
I'm deploying a web app which happens to be ROOT. It is not a WAR
file but an exploded app.
My Host line is as follows :
<Host name="192.168.20.20" appBase="c:/company/myapps" debug="0"
unpackWARs="false" autoDeploy="true">
</Host>
The fact the I'm deploying it as an exploded app what should
"autoDeploy" be set to *ideally*.
The reason I write this is because we have made changes to the app
and even sometimes deleted the /conf/Catalina/192.168.20.20/ROOT.xml
and find out that the ROOT folder off of the appBase has been
completely deleted !!
I can't reproduce the scenario that causes the deletion but the
"autoDeploy" attribute has piqued my curiosity.
Thanks

I'd expect deleting context.xml to result in deletion of the WAR and
directory. That said, I am awae there are some inconsistencies and I
have reviewing behaviour vs. docs on my todo list.

There have been some changes in deployment checking since 6.0.20, but Mark T's memory would probably be a better source for a definitive statement than my wandering through the diffs.

What version of Tomcat did this occur on? According to the current (6.0.26) doc:
"Deleting a context file will trigger an undeploy of the application with the removal of any associated work directory. Any current user sessions will not be persisted. If there is an associated WAR file and/or directory, they will not be deleted and the application will be redeployed from the WAR file (or from directory if there is no WAR file) the next time the auto deployer checks for changes."
Some fixes (including doc updates) have gone into recent 6.0 versions.
