Clear Tomcat Cache in IntelliJ IDEA

Clearing the cache in Tomcat can be achieved by following these steps:

1. To stop the Tomcat server: The first step is to stop the Tomcat server, which can be done either through the command line or the Tomcat management interface.
2. Delete cache files in the Tomcat working directory: The working directory of the Tomcat server is usually located in the “work” folder under the Tomcat installation directory, and you can manually delete all files and folders in that directory to clear the cache.
3. Delete Tomcat log files: The log files of a Tomcat server are usually located in the “logs” folder under the Tomcat installation directory, you can manually delete the log files in that folder to clear the cache.
4. To clear the cache of a web application: If you need to clear the cache of a specific web application, you can delete the corresponding folder within the webapps directory in the Tomcat installation folder.
5. Restarting the Tomcat server: Once the cache is cleared, restarting the Tomcat server will take effect.

By following the above steps, you can clear the cache in the Tomcat server and allow the server to reload the latest files and data.
