Galileo & Web Project based on Tomcat [message #490883]

Hi

Can someone tell me how to find where Eclipse stores details of deployed web projects on a XP system? I'm developing a Struts 2 based web-app which has been working. I became suspicious that Eclipse was no longer deploying the latest version of my struts.xml file. So to verify, I deleted it from my project - selected my web-project -> Run on Server and the project ran! I've stopped the Tomcat Server, cleared the work area, removed the web project via server add remove, cleaned and rebuilt the project. Still the web-app runs. I've even deleted the server definition and re-created it and still I can't "kill" my web-app.

I have absolutly no idea what to try next!

Regards

Details about the Tomcat support in WTP can be found in the Tomcat FAQ:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/WTP_Tomcat_FAQ

You can check where the web-app is being published and verify if the
struts.xml is not there. I would expect it not to be there, since it
was removed from the project. If so, then why that doesn't "kill" the
web-app would be a separate issue.

Cheers,
Larry

Typically it is located:

<Projects
Folder> \.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.wst.server.core\tmp0\wtpweba pps

Sorry Guys,

I've got to plead stupidity here. I'd been playing with the Struts 2 convention plugin which doesn''t require the struts,xml file to be present (it uses it if it finds it). Once you told me where to look and the file wasn't there, the penny dropped - I'd put it in the wrong place in my source application!

Sorry
