Actually, it was STUPID, not weird (cross-posted to Tomcat and Debian Lists): my BROWSER CACHES never got flushed!

2017-09-08 Thread James H. H. Lampert
I really can't believe I didn't think about the possibility that my browsers were both still caching the default root context from Tomcat 7 when I did the port swap. I definitely need to always remember to consider the possibility that I'm doing something stupid. -- JHHL

I also stuck a similar named trivial static context into /var/lib/tomcat7/webapps (with a different directory name: "foobar" in Tomcat 8, "bozbar" in Tomcat 7). In theory, Tomcat 8.5 should be able to see the foobar context, but not the bozbar context; this is also true in practice. So it's

Just for grins, I put a trivial static context (nothing more than a directory containing a simple "index.html" file) into /var/lib/tomcat8/webapps. Tomcat 8.5 found it. So it's only the root context that's somehow getting redirected. But on the other hand, if I rename var/lib/tomcat7/webapps/R

I've got two separate boxes, both running Debian Jessie, with both Tomcat 7.0.56 and Tomcat 8.5.14 installed, all of the installations via an apt-get from Debian's repositories. On one of the boxes (Tomcat 8.5 installed alongside Tomcat 7 with no previous Tomcat 8), Tomat 8 is somehow pulling
