[GitHub] [trafficcontrol] smalenfant opened a new pull request #5553: Removing Tomcat build lock
smalenfant opened a new pull request #5553:
URL: https://github.com/apache/trafficcontrol/pull/5553
## What does this PR (Pull Request) do?
This removes the restrictions imposed in the past to "lock in" the Tomcat release for Traffic Router. This has been quite a bit of a problem in the past in production when downgrading/upgrading TR (rollback). We don't compile nor we change the Tomcat code. There shouldn't be a need for this except for having a required version installed.
There has been compatibility issues in the past. All code should be tested in the lab before going to production.
This will also allow to upgrade Tomcat in the field without recompiling Traffic Router.
