Its just me, I do not fully trust the /manager app to deploy webapps all the time. For example its suppose to be able to deploy a war file even if the war file is coming from a remote site, ie it should attempt to download it but I have no luck with it deploying a remote war file yet. I would do a manual deployment, ie create the context config file at tomcat5/conf/<engine>/localhost/yourappname.xml and deploy your war or expanded war at tomcat5/webapps/. See if you get the same results. Another tool to use is the jmxproxy. Query it and see if it has deployed your webapp.
