MainDeployer cannot delete my WAR when undeploying

Hi all --

When I update my WAR in JBoss/Tomcat (3.0.4/4.1.12), the server notices the update, and attempts to redeploy the WAR, first undeploying the old WAR.

However, it cannot delete the WAR stored in server/default/tmp/deploy/server/default/deploy directory. Here is the error message I am receiving.

09:56:34,734 INFO [Engine] StandardHost[localhost]: Removing web application at context path /cactu
s
09:56:34,750 INFO [Engine] ServletTestRunner: destroy
09:56:34,750 INFO [Engine] ServletRedirector: destroy
09:56:34,750 INFO [MainDeployer] could not delete directory file:/Z:/Java/jboss-3.0.4_tomcat-4.1.12
/server/default/tmp/deploy/server/default/deploy/cactus.war/122.cactus.war restart will delete it
09:56:34,750 INFO [MainDeployer] Undeployed file:/Z:/Java/jboss-3.0.4_tomcat-4.1.12/server/default/
deploy/cactus.war

I suspect that this is why I am seeing old results pop up even when I change my WAR and redeploy it. Any help? I am using java 1.3.

thanks,
Collin

When it redeployed did it try to use
122.cactus.jar instead of 123.cactus.jar or
whatever the next number was?
If so, it is a bug.

You might want to post web questions in the http
forum in future?

Hi,

Regarding the first reply, I'm not sure which one it was referencing, as I cleared out the tmp directory before I had a chance to look.

Though, I did upgrade to Java 1.4 (j2se && j2ee) and that solved the problem! Also, I found that for development, deploying all of my apps/jars/etc as flat files and directories solved many of my problems in this regard.
