Tomcat not scanning WEB-INF/Tmp

[g***@tiscali.it]

Hi,

I have a problem in the start phase of Apache
Tomcat/7.0.90
Inside the folder WEB-INF I have a subfolder called Tmp
(application/WEB-INF/Tmp) where sometimes I put a lot of files and
folders (more then 100.000) and after 24h I clean this folder.
But if in
the meantime I need to restart the application, the restart time
increases a lot (more then 1h) because it scans this Tmp folder
Do you
know a way to prevent the Tomcat from scanning the WEB-INF/Tmp
folder?

Thanks

Why are you writing stuff in the web app folder?
Problem with this is that the WAR doesn't even need to be extracted
depending on configuration.

I would always try to avoid this and use java's own tmp folder mechanism
for a writeable folder
Does the servlet spec also not have something like this? That you can ask
for a "work" folder?

Johan,

+1

The context-specific temp directory Tomcat provides ends up in the
work/ directory under CATALINA_BASE.

That being said, using the context-private temp directory will also be
subject to deletion if the application is un-deployed. If these files
are important and need to survive something like un-deploy->deploy,
then your best bet is to find a well-known place to write those files
which is completely outside anything that Tomcat is looking at.

Thanks,
