If a web application, packaged as an archive rather than a directory, includes context configuration in META-INF/context.xml
,
Virgo copies this file to $SERVER_HOME/config/[enginename]/[hostname]/[contextpath].xml
.
If the application is redeployed, the copy of the context configuration overrides any updated context configuration included in
META-INF/context.xml
. To use the updated context configuration, the user must delete the copy of the file before redeploying.
This is covered by
bug 328683.
