           Summary: Symbolic links not (re)followed when application is
                    reloaded
           Product: Tomcat 5
           Version: 5.5.9
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Catalina
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


When the path of the docBase of an application contains a symbolic link Tomcat
still consider the initial targeted folder after a reload.

Ex:
when file system first contains:
/foo/myApp_version1 (dir)
/foo/myApp -> /foo/myApp_version1 (symbolic link)

Tomcat is started and then application myApp is stopped. Symbolic link is
changed to point to myApp_version2:
/foo/myApp_version1 (dir)
/foo/myApp_version2 (dir)
/foo/myApp -> /foo/myApp_version2 (symbolic link)

and finally application myApp is started. The problem is that the displayed web
application is still the one contained in /foo/myApp_version1 (the initially
targeted folder)and not the one contained in /foo/myApp_version2.
