Re: Fwd: catalina ant deploy task problem...

Hi Jake,

I'm using the deploy task with the same attributes and it works.
Thinking of the IO exception you might take a look at the following
areas:

1) the URL. Speaking of unix, there we have
file:///home/stefan/whatever.war
The first two "//" belong to the protocol specification, the last one to
the path in the filesystem. So when using a Micro$oft OS, an absolute
path starts with the drive letter. Following this, your URL should be
file://C:/anypath/anyfile.war (you are using three "///"). Im not sure
if you have to use "\" instead of "/" in the path.

2) Did you check check your file access permissions? AFAIK tomcat
receives the war file using a HTTP PUT and places it somewhere in the
work subdirectory. Do you see your war file here?

3) Try to increase the debug attribute of the manager context in
server.xml, to get more logging info. Hopefully you get a hint in the
logs what's going wrong.

4) Does your server.xml have unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true" set in
the Host element?

Another short note for the deploy task specific to barracuda:
Tomcat processes META-INF/context.xml as a context configuration into
server.xml. So I think we should move WEB-INF/ccf.xml to
META-INF/context.xml. 

Regards,
Stefan
