Jacob,
My hosting service is Tomcat 4.18 so I'm kind of stuck with 4.x. Are
you saying if I use tomcat 4.x I must not put a context for my
applicaton in server.mxl? Then it will be unpacked automatially?
thanks,

Yep, that's exactly what I'm saying. Or, do this...
<Context path="/coolapp" docBase="coolapp.war"/>
Now you can specify any configuration you want for your app and it
will be deployed just fine. It won't be unpacked. It will run
directly from the .war file. Just note that you will not be able to
use context.getRealPath("/") as it will return null if the app is
deployed directly from the .war file and not a directory. Of course,
you should never depend on this anyway if you want your application to
run under any appserver.
Also note that the above is exactly what you'd give to Tomcat5 and it
will unpack it anyway. The app will run from the directory, not the
.war file even though the docBase is specified as the .war file.
