Tomcat deploys older version of webapp












1















This might be a duplicate, cause I can't image that we're the first to encounter this, but I can't seem to find it.



So, we are deploying WAR files to a tomcat 8.5 server with gitlab ci using maven. Issue is that tomcat messes up the versions when we moved from 0.2.9 to 0.2.10. Apparendly the server deploys the WARs in alphabetical order and 0.2.10 lies between 0.2.1 and 0.2.2 and the running version is still 0.2.9 even while 0.2.10 was correctly deployed to the server.



Full webapp name looks like: WebappName##0.2.10-SNAPSHOT_201901010000.war



We thought about renaming our versions to 0.2.009 and 0.2.010 but that seems like a rather dirty work-around. Of cause older versions will be deleted from time to time so it's not a permanent problem, but it's just somewhat annoying and any hints on how to solve this would be great.
