Artifact location on disk
I have my app working fine with a local Tomcat installation, but I am trying to move over to Tomcat running in a Docker container. That I can get to work if I build a war file and then deploy it to Tomcat, but I'd rather work with an exploded war. The problem is when I try to bind the artifact directory to the webapps folder in Docker, there is no artifact folder.
When I browse to the folder where the exploded war directory should be, instead I see an xml file named [project_name]_war_exploded.xml. This leaves me with nothing to map over to the Docker container.
Another thing I notice is when I try to enable web application support under Add Framework Support, there is no option for web application. This hasn't been an issue so far.

Hello,
Could you please share idea.log ("Help | Show Log in...") after restarting IDE and building artifact? You could use any file sharing system
Sure, here you go: https://www.dropbox.com/s/p5aj1ps8bj78urt/idea.log?dl=0
Do you face problem with adding "Web" support with this project only? Is it possible to build artifact with new sample project?
I have the web support option available in a different project. However, even in that project, with web support enabled, I still don't have an actual directory under .idea/artifacts. I just have an xml file for the artifact.
Artifact should be located under /out/artifacts folder. ".idea" folder keeps only project configuration information
