You must delete the corresponding webapp directory.
So if you use the standard configuration of
<tomcat home>/webapps and you have a foo.war file. It will create the
context directory as <tomcat home>/webapps/foo. If you update foo.war
you must delete the foo directory. Tomcat will not unpack the foo.war file
if the corresponding foo context directory already exists.

Subject: AW: Question from a newbee on deployment of war file
One question concerning this auto-deploying: What happens, if i
overwrite the .war-File later with a newer version containing changed
files? Does Tomcat do a automatic redeploy with the new files? What to
do in this case?
