Work directory shouldn't be deleted ----------------------------------- Key: JBAS-3358 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-3358 Project: JBoss Application Server Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: Web (Tomcat) service Affects Versions: JBossAS-4.0.4.GA Reporter: Javid Jamae Assigned To: Remy Maucherat Fix For: JBossAS-4.0.5.GA I tried enabling HTTP session persistence, but found out that the default directory that it writes to is the work directory. Working with JBoss support, I discovered that the work directory is deleted when the server shuts down. Either the work directory should not be deleted, or the default directory where the persistent HTTP sessions are serialized to a file should be changed to be in a directory other than work (since it is being deleted).
