You can't use "undeploy" on an app that was listed in server.xml already. It can only be used on an app where you did a "deploy". Set up your Ant build scripts to do the deploy command as well. (Note -- if you're running Tomcat on your development machine, using install/remove will run faster than deploy/undeploy.) > Thanks in advance. > Mark Craig -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
