Hello,
I mentioned in an previous question that newer releases of tomcat7
(Windows) seems to be unpacking our war files to webapps when it wasn't
doing that previously. We were running fine prior to this and have
encountered some issues replacing the war files with the corresponding
webapps dir not being updated properly (so we usually just delete them
prior to replacing the war).
I found unpackWARs in server.xml but according to the documentation: "WAR
files located outside of the Host's appBase will not be expanded." Which
doesn't seem to be the case for us (we're outside, but being expanded) -
unless I've misunderstood something.
So I changed that to false and started tomcat, but got errors along these
lines from our two wars...

For now, we'll probably just leave unpackWARs to true, and delete the
webapps dirs - but if anyone has any insight...
Thanks.
