Clear Tomcat working directory with IntelliJ

Question

I am using IntelliJ 14 to deploy a Spring application for my local installation of Tomcat 8 (Windows).

I recently changed the shell of letters to some file names, and it seems that the Tomcat working directory is not updated correctly (maybe a file system error that does not take Windows into account).

How to clean Tomcat 8 working directory using IntelliJ?

Answer 1

IntelliJ creates the Tomcat cache in C:\Users\<your-username>\.IntelliJIdea<year>.<version>\system\tomcat . You can delete this folder to clear the cache.

Attention! Be sure to clear your browser cache. If you use Chrome, F12> "Application" tab> "Clear storage"> "Clear site data"

Answer 2

I did not find this option in IntelliJ.

But you can delete the working directory in the folder

\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat XX\work\Catalina

He will do the job.
