Hello i have a java backend running on tomcat. java creates a .txt File that is saved locally in the Webcontent Folder. But the file is not found on the client side, altought it exists on the Webserver. After a refresh of my java workspace the file is found. Is t开发者_运维技巧here a way to tell tomcat to refresh / redeploy using java?
greetings!
Tomcat does not see your WebContents folder, but a copy create by the Tomcat server connector. Refreshing updates the copy.
What generates the .txt file? A separate program or code embedded in your web application?
There are a number of cases where the app would have to generate the file to be immediately available to the browser. For example, an image upload window. When the server creates the file from within WTP, it will have to also create the file at the published location where Tomcat is expected to pick it up. Open the server properties, tomcat arguments, catalina root parameter to find out where this location is. When the application is deployed this functionality will need to be disabled, of course.
