Hi ,

I was asked to clear JSP cache by delting the files under Profile_Home/temp/NodeName/ServerName/AppName/* . This needs to be done with every deployment and our deployments are scripted using jython. So wanted to know if there is a way to do this through wsadmin so that I can incorporate it in my scripts.

Thanks in advance. 

Hi,
It is safe to clear the /temp folders. You should read this blog about it,

Things to know before deleting temporary, cache and log files in WebSphere Application Server

www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/blo...

Wsadmin does not have an interface into the temp folders.

Thanks a lot, the article was great.

If you know, please answer  this one.  Does profile_root/temp recreated/cleared with each deployment. The reason behind me clearing the jsp cache was that,  the old jsp was being displayed after a successful deployment and restart of the jvm.

It looks like the same question was asked on the blog entry and Kumaran answered it.

Old JSP in the profile-root/temp will not get updated or removed during update or reinstall of the application.
Please add
com.ibm.websphere.deletejspclasses custom property
in the nodeagent JVM process definition, save and sync the changes.
