RE: incorrect war file structure
Jeff, You can try to do several workarounds. 1. Have resource folder (configurations) structure to be the same as you wish to be in the destination war file and put these resources not into war - configuration - webResources but into general build - resources part. During build these resources will be in the classpath and the war file will take them. 2. Have antrun plugin assigned for example to process-resources phase which will use copy ant task and copy all files you need.
