We have an OD project where the web.xml became corrupted.

Is there a way to re-create the web.xml from scratch?

Tried deleting it but that did not work.

Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks

Hi.

a) You can try to re-generate the web.xml if you are able to remove the old one from the project. Follow all steps below to get a new regenerated web.xml.

a1) Back up the existing web.xml and remove it from the project;
a2) Copy in a new web.xml from a blank new project which you have to first create;
a3) Use the context menu option 'Project' -> 'Generate' -> 'Generate Project' to get all the new content generated in the new web.xml.


b) Make a small change like moving a node slightly then save the new flow editor. The "Save" action will cause the web.xml file to be regenerated. You would have to do that for every flow file in the project.


c) Any backup of the working web.xml file ?
If YES, just restore it. If NO, try to follow steps a) and/or b).
In a future perspective, make a backup of all your important files in each project.
