Sure enough, I used 7-Zip to archive the app into a zip, then just renamed that to a .war file.
Makes me feel tacky.

Probably not related (as this has happened occasionally before) but Tomcat6 would only partially deploy the app. It populates the WEB-INF and bluedragon directories, then explodes nothing else. Repeated attempts, mixed with restarts would often get it to work after a while. But...

This time, (after reading this), I changed the unpackWARs attribute to "false" (in the server.xml file - leaving autoDeploy="true") and restarted the service, and the app fully deployed the very next time I plopped the war into the webapps folder.

Maybe this will help someone else someday, or perhaps it was just coincidence.

I would say it is...to stay true to Java :) just do:  jar cvf MyOpenBDProject.war .  
I can agree though that this was a neat feature in the OpenBD Desktop

My understanding is that a .war file is just a .zip file renamed.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
