Do you need > autoDeploy="true" if you manually modify the deployed > applications? I would only expect a redeploy for DST under the most bizarre of situations. DST is a local phenomenon and I believe Tomcat uses UNIX-time (that is, milliseconds since the epoch) to track these times. That UNIX-time number always increases and never decreases, even when DST changes occur. It's more likely that your clock hiccuped during a time when you intentionally updated the WAR file and that triggered a re-deploy. I'm not saying that DST definitely did not cause anything like this, but I would be surprised if it did. Note that using the deployment-directory for ... really anything is a bad idea for the reason stated above (Tomcat deleted your stuff) and several others. Try to avoid doing that. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.15 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJSeTlWAAoJEBzwKT+lPKRYjiQQAKFeZ2wTKTuNFoVMpG87FGpT 9fKt74yq5YK3Y4MX2V84bKaa/bMxRz+Jc2ZMUUYDCNaioU3COuMF5EBadbC0hN4M wY8IoaZL8hUl4r9/Hd7MxFleb1VhBXsx8SqDUFcT+MM+UskiWFTfIeEf1W+FSLn5 u30jnzifIRuaCPv2Zq2yUAvANGyv+/qM3/IAJn5yeKdkHJzggcspbffyX4M2rEmE k7RArOOOl/3sY3wOoux59hgGnLtU8jdM4W0Ri4Ya4rjLs3ZRb+QdNoX97nbT37ll JoLmaAvEOj+MJ84ZCGhco8AbhFHyj3iGNXQj/QxDM/D5YH7vF+SVubokpot5yO91 vqHxI3rtKcZg/j5wlqTcw/GjCwQWvxatO3H5tocVzDAOP6wrqdRVxtv43wyQ1fQO 8107+4YjJA2jYsAEhiCpyeV8tgA4dd7V6LvZWQwf5War8CRrySYXIK4jQ8C8/O+C Eui3lXdzKO3tiF6THwPVmVTPBxfgW7PSTN3NkkYhS3+gvib9cvvL0ebRba+Ki5pK vhG1el31M5lZbTGfL9FooXCnU+CgEb7lKvfO8bICh7l3MuXplyGcQ0tmmrlrD3i5 fayZgETEGCsycZOwAwbRicratDomvh5zlzRKhooJAINHASswIkidsRSmzxfwLbEY ADscULj1MmFu07YZBKlu =ekCO -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
