Hi, The reason your patch hasn't been applied yet (or at least, the reason I haven't applied it yet, and I have looked at it once your twice) is that I'm sure the copy operation you remove is really redundant in all cases.
The copy operation seems to have been added as part of revision 303270 committed on Thu Sep 23 07:03:27 2004 UTC by Remy. It's been nearly a year and half since then, with no complaints about this code except yours, so it seems to work for the majority of users. Accordingly, before we go and apply your patch, we'd need to be convinced that it doesn't introduce a regression failure. For reference, Remy's commit notes on the patch read: - Fix some deprecation warnings. - Fix bug 31264: deploy should now behave correctly. Also move the writing of the WAR inside the isServiced block, so that if the uploading takes time, the auto deployer doesn't try to deploy it. - Add any deployment operation inside a try/finally block so that serviced is set back to false for the management operation, regardless of what occurs. There shouldn't be any unexpected exceptions thrown out there, but any problem would prevent further management of the application.
