[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Resolved: (JBAS-3358) Work directory shouldn't be deleted on Context Destroy

[Anil Saldhana (JIRA)]

     [ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-3358?page=all ]

Anil Saldhana resolved JBAS-3358.
---------------------------------

    Resolution: Done

Made configurable at the tomcat service level.   There is an attribute that can be changed in deploy/jbossweb-tomcat55.sar/META-INF/jboss-service.xml

 <!--Flag to delete the Work Dir on Context Destroy -->
<attribute name="DeleteWorkDirOnContextDestroy">false</attribute>


Do we need a testcase for this?

> 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).
