Tomcat autodeploy on WinXP

A

andyesquire

Hi,

I'm using Tomcat 5.5.7 on Windows XP with unpackWARs="true" and
autoDeploy="true". Whenever I copy a new WAR file into the webapps
directory, Tomcat corrupts the existing unpacked directory, leaving
only a few of the original files - this is very annoying behaviour and
I'm unsure whether this is a Tomcat issue or Windows XP file locking
.... I can hardly continue stop/starting Tomcat each time I redeploy as
that's too time consuming.

I'm wondering if I can sidestep the problem, by using other settings or
deployment methods, like avoid using WAR files in development.

What Tomcat web app deployment methods are best? (I'm using IntelliJ
IDEA).

I realise this isn't a very Java-ish question :) Pls respond to
newgroup.

Thanks,

Andy.
