What exactly you're trying here, If you do NOT want other app to get deployed then easy way is to don't keep them in 'webapps' directory OR http://tomcat Home page > Tomcat Manger > List App > undeploy.

You didn't actually say what appserver you're using - apparently it's Tomcat. We have a Tomcat forum for questions like that where you can find Tomcat experts to help.

As far as it goes, if it's in the Tomcat webapps directory, by definition, it IS deployed. The only way to un-deploy it is by deleting the WAR/exploded WAR from that directory.

You get better control if you use the TOMCAT_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost directory and Context xml files to manage your deployment. Have the context reference an unexploded WAR that's located outside of Tomcat.

However, in order to ensure that you don't end up with deployment to the webapps directory, you may need to configure Tomcat not to explode the WAR into webapps. This option varies depending on the version of Tomcat you're using.

Or a simple off the track alternative would be to shutdown Tomcat, rename all packed WARs to something else like .abc and start Tomcat again.




Anyways why would you not want them to load if they are deployed?
