Hi John, One more comment on running with an un-exploded war file. The main sticking point used to be that we used a method (I forget the details at the moment) to figure out the directory of the webapp/thredds directory. This method fails when running with an un-exploded war file. We used that to build the path for the content/thredds directory. We no longer do that (at least not by default). So that problem is out of the way. However, we still explicitly reference a few files in the webapp/thredds directory structure. I'm just not sure that we have switched all of those to open them as resources rather than files. (Actually, I suspect we have not changed them yet.) But I also suspect this section of code is only called when a TDS is run the first time, with an empty content/thredds directory. Tracking all this down has never made it very high on our list. How important is it for you to run it as an un-exploded war file? Might be interesting to just give it a try if you have a test system handy. Just try it with the path to your content/thredds explicitly defined and already populated with config and catalog files. Hope that helps, Ethan On Wed, Mar 4, 2015 at 5:39 PM, John Caron <caron@xxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi John: > > You can configure tomcat to not explode thredds.war. it will still create > a content directory as usual. > > Version 4.3 requires Tomcat 6, but we recommend the latest version of > Tomcat 7. > TDS 4.5 requires Tomcat 7+ and Java 7+. > > There are some lingering issues with FMRC with 4.5, but otherwise its > better than 4.3.
