Web application no longer restarts automatically on Azure WebApps on TOMCAT server : HTTP 404-CodePudding

My applications were working properly on Azure, but after a Microsoft Docker update, they don't all restart automatically.

I have an HTTP 404:

My analysis :

This application was deployed with Microsoft tools

az webapp deploy ...

in log : /home/DeploymentLogStream/ xxx.log the application is deployed correctly and it is present on file system

...
"Clean deploying to /home/site/wwwroot/webapps/wholesale"}
"Generating deployment script."}
"Using cached version of deployment script (command: 'azure -y --no-dot
"Running deployment command..."}
"Command: \"/home/site/deployments/tools/deploy.sh\""}
"Handling Basic Web Site deployment."}
....
"Requesting site restart"}
"Requesting site restart. Attempt #1"}
"Successfully requested a restart. Attempt #1"}
"Deployment successful. deployer = OneDeploy deploymentPath = OneDeploy

In Docker Log file I see an update of Microsoft image :

Container ... initialized successfully and is ready to serve requests.

But in Tomcat log File I only see the default ROOT module and not my Web application. and indeed my app is not copy from /home/site/wwwroot/webapps/wholesale to /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/wholesale /usr/local/tomcat/webapps

Redeployment does not change the problem. Multiple restarts solve the problem but without understanding why. The workaround is to manually copy the directory from /home to /usr, but next update will remove it.

Someone has an idea to solve the problem ?

CodePudding user response：

Apologies for the inconvenience with this issue and delayed response here.

Users using the auto-update version of Tomcat on Linux that deploy multiple applications in the webapps directory may see their apps return 404.

You may manually change the version to respective working version:

Tomcat 8.5: 8.5.72

Tomcat 9.0: 9.0.54

Tomcat 10.0: 10.0.12

You may also check Azure Service Health history, notification info.

Kindly let us know how it goes.
