Hello,

We have an existing Spring project that is running in a clustered environment on WAS 6.1. The issue is that we have made changes to the web.xml and some of the core *-servlet.xml files. When the application is restarted with these changes, nothing is picked up. The web.xml has been given a new servlet of type org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet but its not being init during startup. I've cleared out the temp directories but still nothing.

Is this a bug with WAS 6.1 as it also happens with WAS 5.1 or maybe a configuration issue? However, when i incorporate the changes and deploy the ear it works fine. However, I cant redeploy the ear in production.

Any help is appreciated.
