Auto-deploying WAR file with arbitrary filename, defining the URL context in meta file
Hello list, I have actually cross-posted this on ServerFault. My problem is that I'd like to auto-deploy a WAR file with a fixed filename "specialfilename.war" (because it includes a special identifier that I need). With Tomcat 6, the WAR filename has to be "my#url#context.war" in order to auto-deploy it to "/my/url/context". Adding a custom "META-INF/context.xml" file doesn't seem to change anything, the site is still deployed to "/specialfilename" (in this example). Please also refer to the more detailed question on ServerFault (http://serverfault.com/questions/242399/auto-deploy-war-to-arbitrary-url-on-tomcat).
