Hi Chuck. Maybe I wasn't very clear.
What I did was the following: I placed all my directories structure, within the src dir I placed the HelloRafael.jsp,inside a HelloRafael.war file and that's what I deployed into Tomcat using the Manager. I copied a build.xml file and adapted it to my web appl, and this too goes inside my HelloRafael.war file. So I am quite sure that I'm doing something wrong, the question is What exactly I'm doing wrong? Thanks.

The manager deploys webapps, not individual JSPs.
