Yes, that is standard behavior. It's one way to deploy a web application. You get a WAR from some source, put it into the webapps directory, and when the server starts up, it unpacks the web application and deploys it.

I don't know the details, and I've never seen it do that before, but it seems strange that it would try to expand the WAR. Maybe somewhere in some config file is the entry
"developer_environment=true"
or something like that... I can't see why it should try and expand it by default. Any Tomcat gurus out there?

    Subject: [jdjlist] Tomcat WAR Expansion

Hi,

     When i place a WAR file into the Tomcat webapps folder, on
    Restart tomcat
    is not expanding the WAR if server.xml contains the Context entry
    related to
     this, If i remove the Context entry it is expanding.

     Is there any configuration required to expand the WAR by keeping the
    Context entry in the server.xml?

I am using Tomcat 4.1.18 version.

Thanks and Regards,
Pratt
