Friends: (Thanks in advance for your help)

We are trying to deploy war files outside of the webapps folder.  The war
file name is xyz.war.  The approach is the xyz.xml in the
conf/Catalina/localhost folder.  In that file the docBase is set to
/opt/testing/mywebapps/xyz

The xyz.war is located or placed in the folder /opt/testing/mywebapps
folder.

The deployment happens but the unarchiving of the war file is not.  When I
go to the work folder, I see the xyz.war file unarchived but I dont see the
WEB-INF/web.xml file along with a few other missing jsp files as well.
 Essentially the unarchiving of the .war file is not occuring correctly.

Not sure what attributes tot he <Context> element I am missing or what
nested elements I am supposed to put.

==================

When I unarchive the xyz.war by myself in the /opt/testing/mywebapps folder
then the app seems to work.

So what gives ?

Kindly help.
