What is the use case? More use cases for unpackWARs=false, our is: Multiple Tomcats with appBase pointing to a NFS directory (mounted read-only). All WARs are versioned (acme##712.war), come from a Nexus server and SHA1/signature is checked before stored in NFS. Unpacked directories (unpackWARs=true) broken "inmutable" infraestruture (humans are prone to "touch files" manually), in these cases "md5sum xxx.war -tomcat-" vs "md5sum xxx.war -nexus-" help to find the problem. +1 to maintain feature unpackWARs=false. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
