Omar,
Yeah, I had the same problem earlier this week when I upgraded. I got no
response from this list because I'm sure the question has been posted a
thousand times. But I will have mercy on you because I feel your pain.
It's a problem with file locking on Windows. In my case, some of the
JARs in my WEB-INF/lib directory were being locked so when the WAR was
undeployed by tomcat, it wasn't able to delete them and my redeploy
failed. In any case, check out this FAQ:

Hi,
I'm using tomcat 5.5.9 in Linux and Windows . For some reason when I
redeploy a war file to the Windows Tomcat instance I need to restart tomcat
and then deploy again before being able to access the new version of the war
file app. I don't have this problem with the Linux version, the server
configurations are the same as far as I can see....
Any idea why windows is giving me this trouble???

Omar
