Rather odd... every change to the configuration is saved into XML files/property files scattered all over the GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR: could you specify which is the XML file that gets deleted ? > And then another question: I would like to configure geoserver from another > application, is it possible?

On the other hand, adding/patching files manually may work (I did it in a clustered environment) but provided you know what you're doing ! > Please, help me understand something more. You're welcome.
