Hi Fred,
Hereby I attach a zip file containing a web project and a jar project dependency.
To reproduce on a tomcat 6 server and Indigo:
1. Deploy the web project to tomcat 6
2. Run tomcat in debug mode
3. While tomcat is in debug mode, add an empty method to TestJar on test-jar project, say test4() method and save.
4. Restart tomcat in debug (restart, not stop-start).
I then get the error popup:
Publishing failed with multiple errors
Could not delete C:/Workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.wst.server.core/tmp1/wtpwebapps/test-web/WEB-INF/lib. May be locked by another process.
Could not delete C:/Workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.wst.server.core/tmp1/wtpwebapps/test-web/WEB-INF. May be locked by another process.
Now, if I look into C:\Workspace\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.wst.server.core\tmp1\wtpwebapps\test-web\WEB-INF, there is no classes directory, and the lib directory is empty.
Now kill tomcat, and right-click on it and choose 'clean'. Everything is back to normal.
Regards,
Daniel
