Could someone please explain the role of refmgr.ser? (I'm using JSPWiki 2.5.19 and Tomcat 5.5.17. I don't know if the behavior I describe below just happened with a recent release or not - but I've not noticed it before.) I know refmgr.ser is generated kind-of-automatically by JSPWiki. But when I shutdown Tomcat, delete refmgr.ser, I can't restart JSPWiki successfully. If I restore refmgr.ser JSPWiki starts up just fine.

The reason I deleted it is because (and this is really another question) its my understanding that this is where the WikiPage (and now WikiEngine?) attributes are stored. Is that correct?

In my application, I'm setting some WikiPage attributes, and I want my application to control which attributes get persisted (via a database) and which don't. So, as I mentioned above, I deleted refmgr.ser, assuming that JSPWiki would generate a new one. But, as I mentioned, it didn't and refused to start until I put the old one back.

I'm confused on just what's going on here. It seems very fragile. Could someone (Janne?) enlighten me/us on this?

TIA,

Terry
