Remy - I'm not sure what you mean by tasklist? From my Ant?
Yes. I need to be able to reproduce precisely what you are doing.
I've worked around this for now by having "localWar" point to my
project, which is structured as a valid deployment (unpacked WAR) -
and just using the "reload" action, after doing an initial install.
I've noticed, however, that the temporary context.xml files don't
get removed when I shut-down Tomcat 5. This seems like a bug, right?
No. The .xml should only be removed on undeploy.
Ah, I thought I read somewhere in the Tomcat documentation that
actions taken through the Manager app are temporary ... maybe that's
just the install/remove tasks?
Deployment related tasks are no longer temporary, which is what should
have been the first time around. start/stop are, of course.
Remy,
I think I've determined a better way of doing this - instead of
deploying the WAR file, I'm deploying from the project directory
(exploded WAR) using the "localWar" attribute of the deploy task, and
simply using the reload task thereafter.
The problem I'm running into is that if Tomcat has to restart w/o having
undeployed the application, it tries to initialize the application from
a docBase that isn't pointing to the directory specified by "localWar" -
its either what is set in the docBase of the context I provide in the
deployment task, or - if I remove the docBase attribute - it just looks
in webapps/. Neither of which are correct. Since the
developers on this project don't have everything installed in all the
same places - it would be nice if we could get around having to
hard-code the docBase ... is this possible?
Here's my Ant task:
config="file:${basedir}/conf/context.xml"
localWar="file:///${basedir}"/>
Ideally, in the process of storing the context.xml file in the
conf/Catalina/localhost directory, the 'docBase' will be set to the
value of 'localWar' ...
Otherwise, the only thing I can think of is adopting the behaviour of
the "install" task in Tomcat 4.1, which is that it is temporary - so it
doesn't stick around the next time ...
I'm trying to simplify the configuration on the developers machine,
centralizing as much of it as possible in CVS, so I can ensure that
everyone's configurations work the same, despite possibly having
different install paths.
Thanks!
Brice

Not if you haven't undeployed it. the "install" task from Tomcat-4.1.xx worked this way. The context was deployed only in memory and server restart would be enough to get rid of it. I personally like the way Tomcat5 works for deployment. The only thing I wish is that when deploying from a local war and wanting to update that deployment, you could just do "deploy" with the "update" flag and it would undeploy it first if it was already deployed. This works when doing a normal deployment but not which a local war for some reason, although I haven't tested this with Tomcat-5.0.18 yet. Jake -- Brice D.

Re: Eclipse+Ant+Tomcat 5 - problems
Actually, we're using the MyEclipse Enterprise Workbench set of plug-ins, which also handles deploying to Tomcat, but right now, I still need to deploy with Ant.

Preface: our IDE is Eclipse, I use Ant with the catalina-ant tasks to install/remove our web-app from a local Tomcat installation. Everything has worked fine, though I've noticed that after my first install (once I start Eclipse and Tomcat) - anytime I remove/install the web-app, the install appears to init the app twice (my load-on-init servlet's are called twice, etc.) I never figured out what caused this, but it didn't negatively impact anything, so I didn't care. Now, with Tomcat 5 ... after a little tweaking, to my Eclipse environment, I was able to get my same install/remove task working with Ant. The only problem now is that after the initial install, when I do a remove/install, it seems to still init the app twice, only on the second init, it crokes. Talks about a property string that it can't find and then that it can't find the deployment directory for the app (the app is installed from a .WAR) Not good. So, I did some googling - found that apparent install/remove has been deprecated in favor of deploy/undeploy. Fine - so I tried using the deploy task. Apparently, ant doesn't have enough memory to deploy my 90MB+ .WAR (installing never seemed to be a problem) - and when I looked for threads on the DeployTask generating "OutOfMemory" exceptions, it said to increase ant's memory ... which I can't, for the life of myself, figure out how to do with Eclipse. I've previously gone done the path of having ant fork, but it caused so many problems with our builds, I'd rather not revisit that. Does anybody have anything that can help me? I'm trying out Tomcat 5 because Tomcat 4.1.x appears to have some pretty severe memory leaks with its install/remove operations - if I install/remove my web-app more than 2-3 times, Tomcat (not the Ant task and not Eclipse) runs OutOfMemory ... other users have reported that Tomcat 5 does much better in this arena.

RE: Eclipse+Ant+Tomcat 5 - problems
Try installing Tomcat 5.0.18. Tomcat 5.0.16 has a memory leak. Not sure in which version this leak first appeared.
