Hi Alex,
i always had this problem too.
When after saving files i just write a "space" in the file then save
again and wait for a second, then reload the page in the browser and
will work.
I used to do this eveytime i save a file.
so i do : save, white space in the file, save again, wait a sec, reload
the browser.
Autodeploy is so strange :S
Kind Regards, Andrea

Since tmp0\wtpwebapps\[myWebbApp]\home.html is being updated, the WTP
publish is working. The behavior you are seeing is between Tomcat and
the browser.
You could use the Monitor support (right-click on the server in the
Servers view and select Monitoring -> "Monitor port <your_http_port>" to
see what is transpiring between Tomcat and your browser. Knowing what's
happening between the browser and Tomcat should show why you are seeing
this behavior.
Note that with a monitor port enabled, the "Run on Server" and "Debug on
Server" will automatically pick up the monitor port number when opening
the browser. You can view the port number directly with Monitoring ->
Properties. Also, in this Properties dialog you can remove and re-add
the monitor port using your specifications, if you want to control the
monitor port number.
If it is revealed that Tomcat is returning old content for home.html
after the file has been updated, then you will need to figure out what
Tomcat caching mechanism is coming into play and how to adjust the
Tomcat configuration to eliminate it. With a default configuration of
Tomcat 6.0.20, I don't see this behavior. Refreshing the browser
displays the changes. You may want to investigate if any configuration
changes you may have made before or after creating this server in WTP as
they may have added this behavior as a side effect. I'm not that
familiar with the static file caching aspects of Tomcat, so you should
probably ask on the Tomcat Users mailing list if you need help with that.
Cheers,
Larry

Enabling antiResourceLocking might do that, but this feature is not
enabled by default. Check the WebContent/META-INF/context.xml file, if
one exists in your project. If not there, check the context.xml file
under the Servers project of your workspace. If this feature is
enabled, it would explain the behavior you are seeing.

It works! The antiResourceLocking parameter was set to true. I've disable it and now everything is ok.
Thanks a lot, Larry!

Hello !
I have the same issue...
I am using (at home) a tomcat 5.5.25 and did not found any antResourceLocking in context.xml files.
Reading this topic, I tried successfullly Publish on server. It did reload/refresh the correct file, but I can't imagine clicking publish everytime i need to see the modifications !
I dont understand why it goes like this, whereas it works well at work...
Any idea of what I make wrong ?
(at work eclispe 3.3.2 with wtp
at home eclipse ganymede with wtp)
thx !
