Didn't see any responses to this. I am having the same problem. My Host element starts like this:
<Host name="my.qualified.hostname" debug="0" appBase="/home/stuff/webapps" unpackWARs="true"> The appBase is not under the CATALINA_HOME directory and works fine if I unpack the war files myself. I run tomcat as user www, and www owns the above-referenced webapps directory. Oddly enough, when I start tomcat as root my war file is unpacked but, owned by root :-( . Has anyone solved a similar problem?

Do I have to configure it to do this? The following is the host element from my server.xml. Isn't this right? <Host name="localhost" debug="0" appBase="webapps" unpackWARs="true"> Thanks, Jason E.
