Description

To fix server bugs in geronimo 2.x , we usually replace the module with a fixed module to see if the bug was fixed. But in Geronimo 3.0, it does not work because there's osgi cache to prevent the fixed module from loading.

we also have some tomcat cache within var/catalina/, we need to clean them too. We need a switch to clear the whole OSGi/Tomcat cache to resolve this for now.
