I have done the following: - Deleted the $CATALINA_HOME\work - Deleted the $CATALINA_HOME\temp - Cleared the client browser cache - Stopped / Restarted Tomcat several times - With Tomcat stopped, made a call to my entry point page and received the 404 error message - Manually cleaned the webapps\<my app> directory from the local file system
Still, the old content persists. Inside Eclipse, I am using the GWT App Engine to test my application which I believe uses the Jetty app server. My Tomcat instance is completely separate from Eclipse. Any feedback is appreciated. I'm going to copy the project to a new project and test under a differet webapp context and see if that works.
