Old deployment being cached in IntelliJ always complaining with FileNotFoundException on Maven project when version upgraded (WildFly 31 as server)

Hello all.

I have a problem with IJ somehow caching the old version of my locally deployed WAR deployment in WildFly 31.0.0.Final.

It doesn't go away, complaining about an old WAR file not being present.

Here's the stacktrace when starting the server + executing the deployment:

I tried the following to get rid of the complaint:

1. Clear the app's target dir

2. Maven clean + package

3. IntelliJ “Invalidate Caches…” and restart  (clear file system cache and local history checked)

4. Removed the artifact from the service and readd

5. Manually cleared out WildFly standalone/deployment dir

6. Manually remove the artifacts from the project and have them be recreated by Maven as in https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360006848980-Deployable-Artifacts-in-Maven-project-not-updating-when-versions-change?page=1#community_comment_4989392811922

None of the above worked.

Does anyone know how to get rid of this, seemingly cached, old version?

Maybe some solution without having to delete the whole .idea dir??

Thanks
