RE: Tomcat 5.5.12: custom mail resource property values ignored in META-INF\context.xml

[Martin Gainty <mg...@hotmail.com>]

Good Morning Steve-

Speculation on my part but did you set the path property before invoking 
execute() before calling Reload
Also I would encourage you to look at
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-4.1-doc/catalina/docs/api/org/apache/catalina/ant/ReloadTask.html
I am cross-posting to struts user list since Craig may be able to shed some 
light
HTH,

Martin-
