Title Body

I am editing JSP files which are residing directly inside tomcat/webapps/myapp/WEB-INF , but to see the changes, I have to restart the server. As far as I know, JSP changes don't require you to restart the server. The only configuration I found which is related to automatic reloading is reloadable = "true" Set to true if you want Catalina to monitor classes in /WEB-INF/classes/ and /WEB-INF/lib for changes, and automatically reload the web application if a change is detected. I used this attribute in the context.xml , but still the problem persists. What could be the other possible reason of not detecting changes in JSP files without restarting? @Bozho: This is the excerpt from web.xml . Do I need to change something? <servlet> <servlet-name>jsp</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet</servlet-class> <init-param> <param-name>fork</param-name> <param-value>false</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>xpoweredBy</param-name> <param-value>false</param-value> </init-param> <load-on-startup>3</load-on-startup> </servlet>
