I know just what you mean!!! I got round the problem by starting to use ant. Its war task is pretty straight forward

I'm looking for a simple step by step tutorial on making WAR archives and making them redistributable. I know this so far: - Directory structure; WEB-INF, WEB-INF/classes, etc and what they are used for - How to write servlets and JSPs, no worries there... So now I need to know, what are the basic steps to make a very simple, almost HelloWord.war type of application? How do I write an application descriptor, and what do I do with it to make an application WAR file? What are all the references to asking an administrator to assign a context path? (I have no administrator, only my home computer and myself!)
