One thing you can do is in the <host unpackWARs="false"> and then each time you put your war file it will use the latest one .. Hope this helps ....

Either restart the webserver and the war file is unpacked and a directory is created. or 2.) Use the manager tool to deploy the war file - or if the app was already there, then it can reload it. Is it possible for you to copy of war file into webapps and a running tomcat server will see it is there an automatically deploy it on it's own with no intervention? And, if the old unpacked app is there and you copy in a new war file and restart - does it create a new directory, overwriting the old one. Or should it only change files that are different from the new war file and the old app - or should it see that there is an old app that hasn't been removed and do nothing? I have been reading up on this and then got a developer account that differed from what I read so I was wondering if anyone else could clarify it further.
