no redeploy after upgrading to latest version

Answered

After upgrading to IntelliJ IDEA 2025.3, the artifacts don't be displayed under the `Tomcat Server → trunk`, like the above screenshot.

In previous versions, there are.

I added some artifacts to this tomcat, I can right click one artifact and choose redeploy to redeploy this specific artifact in previous versions. But now, when I change the files in one artifact and need to redeploy it to make the changes effect(e.g. mybatis xml file modification), I have to restart the whole tomcat.

How can we make the artifacts shown under tomcat in `Services` panel?

Thank you for reporting the problem. Our team collected the known issues / regressions with deployment in this document: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/articles/IDEA-A-2100662565 . Please follow it for updates.

Please also vote for these issues:

Until these problems are resolved, the workaround is to downgrade to the 2025.2.x version at https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download/other.html .

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Redeploy option is still there for the artifacts you are deploying from IntelliJ IDEA:

 

Could you please share any sample project with the steps to reproduce this issue?

Hi Serge Baranov Thanks for your response, my steps as following screenshot indicates:

In previous versions, the artifacts are shown under the Tomcat Server → trunk, like the following screenshot(following picture is from my friend who doesn't upgrade to 2025.3):

In the services view add Tomcat here:

I added Tomcat as you said from the Services view, now it looks like:

but the artifact still is not shown under the `trunk` icon, and if I right click on the artifact name(CDS:war exploded) from the middle of the above screenshot, there is no pop up menu(it seems that it's not right clickable).

Try File | Manage IDE Settings | Restore Default Settings… and a new project.

I tried restore default settings, after that it re-opens the idea and show me import setting dialog, I chose import idea 2025.2, and re-open my project, however it doesn't work too.

Then I deleted the .idea in my project and re-open it, re-add tomcat service, it doesn't work too.

Try with the fresh settings without re-importing them and with a new project.

I had the same issue after moving to 2025.3. Nothing helped - Brand new settings, fresh project initialization and so on. I'm using Wildfly and before the update I was able to re-deploy single component (I'm using plenty of those 10+). Now I need to restart the entire server in order to apply small change and this way I waste a lot of time - what did change in 2025.3 so that artefacts are not displayed directly under running config but on separate window (this windows was also there before but I never used it). The problem is that in this new windows I have only “Deploy” and “Undeploy” options, but they don't build anything on change.

Hi Serge Baranov I tried it, unfortunatelly it doesn't work too. I have to downgrade it to 2025.2. Thanks for your reply.

Aasenov Bg Your're right, it waste a lot of time without redeploy for individual artifact and there is no solution in 2025.3 until now. I have to downgraded it to 2025.2.

Is there any progress for this issue. I'm stuck to version 2025.2 due to current problem. I can't use latest version and feature, as otherwise I need to re-deploy every time while working on my Java EE project. Are there any plans to resolve and is it so hard to re-introduce the old feature, where artefacts were available under server as a drop-down and from there I was able to re-deploy?

Hello Aasenov Bg 

According to IJPL-218977,⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ the issue is already fixed and available in 2025.3.2. Please upgrade to get the fix.

Hello Monica 

It's more about this issue IDEA-383576 I guess, cause the problem is not that the “Artefacts” are missing, but that you have to deploy all on every change, no way to re-deploy that will make a ‘Undeploy/Build/Deploy’. I've tried manually making Undeploy, then re-build the artefact and then Deploy, but still it didn't do the work. On 2025.2 it was possible to trigger re-deploy of artefact and it was re-building latest changes and deploying them.

I already tried with 2025.3.3, and there  I see only deployed artefacts, next to the server, but even if I try to undeploy/build manually/re-deploy it still doesn't deploy the new version. I see that you've changed Services view, but how am I supposed to hot-swap artefact without the need of entire app re-deploying, as it's annoying when you have 20+ artefacts deployed.
