Does Grails run the Bootstrap.groovy script when deploying the app as a war?

Question

Bootstrap executes fine during run-app (database is seeded). But it doesn't appear to get invoked when Tomcat deploys the war (nothing in the database).

Does the Bootstrap get run during war deployment? If not, is there a way to make it run?

Specifically I am wanting my sample data to seed the database.

Yes it does....

i would look to make sure you have your environments configured properly if you see thing working in development, but not production
