Package: tomcat8 Version: 8.5.14-1+deb9u1 Severity: normal Setting copyXML="true" attribute in <Host> section inside:
/etc/tomcat8/server.xml Does not works; if an "appname.war" package contains a META-INF directory with a context.xml context descriptor inside, that file is not copied to: /etc/tomcat8/Calalina/localhost/appname.xml as it should, according to tomcat8 docs: https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.5-doc/config/host.html#Standard_Implementation Moreover, the ROOT context does not works anymore; catalina.out reports a permission error for: /etc/tomcat8/Calalina/localhost/ROOT.xml Workaround: Set group write permission for /etc/tomcat8/Calalina/localhost (group ownership: tomcat8) so that tomcat process can write into it.
