Owner/group of unpacked war-files...

[Trond Magnus Sevre]

Under Linux: I run Resin as root...
When the .war "explode", the new files owner/group is set to root/root. I would like the unpacked files to be owned by the foo.war's owner. Is it possible?
This configuration is to be used on a server with many virtual hosts, so I don't think the:
<user-name>resin</user-name>
<group-name>resin</group-name>
will help me... :S

If Resin is doing the unpacking the same way Tomcat does, you're pretty much stuck with Resin's attributes. Java code isn't permitted to know about such OS-dependent qualities, so only by invoking native code could you override the normally-assigned values.
For safety's sake, however, I don't recommend you run Resin as root.
