--- Comment #3 from Andy Wilkinson <awilkin...@pivotal.io> --- > Tomcat shouldn't be creating directories unless explicitly directed to do so. That seems a little arbitrary to apply that rule in this case. Tomcat already creates directories in several places. A few examples from a non-exhaustive search of the codebase: - JspCompilationContext will create the output directory if needed during JSP compilation [1] - Tomcat will create the base directory during startup if needed [2] - StandardContext will create its work directory if needed [3] As far as I know, and as far as I can tell from looking at the code, in each of these cases it's the default behaviour to create the directory. I also think it's of benefit to Tomcat's usability that it does so. I can't see why the location used for multipart uploads should be treated any differently.
