Hello,

I've just installed ant (and tomcat) and I have a problem : Ant doesn't  
"deploy" to Tomcat's webapps directory (it complies fine however).

I do not know what I'm doing wrong but I suspect that it has something 
to do with JAXP. I've read that ant needs JAXP to work (well in fact I 
"ant compile" successfully before installing JAXP). I've installed it 
but I do not know how ant is going to find out that I have installed 
it...

  What could I check to find the problem and correct it?

Background info:

I'm on Mac OS X 10.1.3 with J2SE 1.3.1

This is what I did:
[localhost:~/sample] stephan% ls
.  ..  build  build.xml  build.xml~  docs  src  web
[localhost:~/sample] stephan% ant deploy
Buildfile: build.xml

prepare:

compile:

BUILD SUCCESSFUL

Total time: 2 seconds
[localhost:~/sample] stephan%


In build.xml the "File and Directory Names" is defined as follow:
<property name="app.name"      value="sample"/>
<property name="app.version"   value="1.0"/>
<property name="build.home"    value="build"/>
<property name="catalina.home" value="/usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.3"/>
<property name="deploy.home"   
value="${catalina.home}/webapps/${app.name}"/>
<property name="dist.home"     value="dist"/>


The "Deploy Target" is defined as follow:
<target name="deploy" depends="compile"
    description="Deploy application to servlet container">

     <!-- Copy the contents of the build directory -->
         <mkdir     dir="${deploy.home}"/>
         <copy    todir="${deploy.home}">
       <fileset dir="${build.home}"/>
     </copy>

   </target>
