Here is what I do:
<target
name="deploy-context"
description="Reload the given context">
<fail unless="tomcat.username">Undefined: tomcat.username</fail>
<fail unless="tomcat.password">Undefined: tomcat.password</fail>
<fail unless="tomcatURL">Undefined: tomcatURL</fail>
<echo taskname="deploy-context">
Deploying ${basedir}/${project.war} to ${tomcatURL}
</echo>
<undeploy
failonerror="false"
taskname="deploy-context"
username="${tomcat.username}"
password="${tomcat.password}"
url ="${tomcatURL}"
path ="/"/>
<deploy
taskname="deploy-context"
username="${tomcat.username}"
password="${tomcat.password}"
url ="${tomcatURL}"
path ="/"
war ="file:${basedir}/${project.war}"/>
</target>
The key is failonerror="false" for the undeploy task.

Subject: Redeploying a war file from a build script
I am writing a build script that would redeploy a war file at the end of
the build.
If I use DeployTask and the application was already deployed from a
previous build, I get an error.
If I use UndeployTask first and the application is not already deployed
(which would happen the first time somebody runs the script on their
machine or if there's a failure between calls to UndeployTask and
DeployTask), I get an error.
I would like the script to be robust enough that it doesn't require the
user to do more than install Tomcat (and my distro, natch) on their
machine.
I thought ListTask useful, here, but I've read through the docs and
could not figure out how to capture the output for parsing (so I could
check whether this particular application is already deployed).
Any thoughts would be helpful,
Bill
