Rachel I been using 4.1.18 alot lately and i've been frustrated by the fact that i have to delete the unpacked war file directory and the war file itself every time i redeploy.. i beleive there is a way to make tomcat not unpack the war file .. something lik host unpackWar="false" but i havent tried it myself.
