http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=40761 Summary: Tomcat will follow symlinks on undeploy. Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.5.12 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Unknown AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I made a small webapp with only a context file with allowLinking parameter set to true and a simple web.xml to be able to link to my music and photo library. I put a symlink to my media collection and everything worked fine. Now, while editing the web.xml - to be able to use customized directory listings - Tomcat all of a sudden made an undeploy of my webapp, reason still unkown. Worse was that the undeploy mechanism followed the symlink and erased everything beneath it because - unfortunately - I was running Tomcat as root :-( Thank god that I had a backup. If this has to do with the allowLinking="true" parameter in the context file or not I don't know but nevertheless it should NOT IMHO act like that on delete. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
