Stephen,

I doubt this is an ant problem.  I would recommend trying to perform
the deployment by hand (using the command line).  When you have
it working then try to replicate the steps you took in your deploy 
target.

If you cannot get you application deployed I would recommend the
tomcat user list as the place to get some advice.
