Is the ROOT context defined in the server.xml or a context configuration file or does the directory "ROOT" already exist? Tomcat-4.x.x will *not* expand a .war file which the docBase matches the name of a .war file (less the .war extension). If you can't work with this behavior, then upgrade to Tomcat-5 which has revamped the way applications are deployed.

After generating the WAR file I use the <chmod> task to change the file and directory permissions.
The following is the result after the task is called...
drwxrwxrwx 3 vnb vnb 512 Jul 28 13:21 webapps -rwxrwxrwx 1 vnb vnb 21911865 Jul 28 13:29 ROOT.war
When I fire up tomcat, I still don't get a ROOT/ directory created.
Is there anything else I'm missing?
