           Summary: Client's context information is not updated
                    automatically in conf/Catalina
           Product: Tomcat 6
           Version: 6.0.26
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: Catalina
        AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org
        ReportedBy: t...@let-it-out.com


Updating/deploying a client with new context information will not trigger an
update of the client context information in conf/Catalina/<myclientname>.xml.

I normally keep the context file in the META-INF folder inside my client (e.g
....webapps/<myclientname>/META-INF/context.xml) which contains the database
information amongst others.
eg. <Resource name="jdbc/database"
            auth="Container"
            type="javax.sql.DataSource"
            username="aname"
            password="whatever"
            driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
            url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/ADATABASENAME?autoReconnect=true"
            maxActive="-1"
            maxIdle="20" />

Then I run the ant script to replace and redeploy the client to the usual
webapps folder and finally start Tomcat.
Upon launch I was expecting Tomcat to reread the context file from the META-INF
and update itself but it didn't do that. I had to manually change that.

Kind Regards

Tony
