I added a new field to a postgis table, then I checked in the relative
geoserver layer if the new field was there (it was). I saved the
geoserver layer.
I tried again changing conf/web.xml and checked the layer using curl and
describefeatureType but the new field was missing from the response.

I tried Server status - Configuration and catalog - Reload too and
checked again with describefeatureType but the new field was still missing.

That Geoserver installation has some other problem that shouldn't be
related to this problem, but who knows.

After restarting geoserver the new field was there.
