If you did this and then added logic to extract and explode the war to that folder as the first activity in your main class (using java's zip libraries) then forward on execution to tomcat, perhaps it would pick up the war? - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
