Description

I run my TomEE as a fat JAR, and I like to keep the distribution as lean as I can achieve. I recently noticed while taking advantage of the extractWars configuration value, which instead of leaving ROOT.war and ROOT/ for instance, it removes the archive and leaving only the directory.

 

Unfortunately, the exploded WAR that results from this variable is ROOT.war/, I only noticed this when I was testing Microprofile config injection in one of my JAX-RS resources. I have attached a very lean example. Please run it and modify extractWars to notice how the config value is not being injected when the directory is ROOT.war/.

 

A fix to the issue will most likely be found here.
