Get over the mental hurdle of thinking of deploying an unpacked war as different from a packed one - they should be treated in exactly the same way. Unpacked is just more accessible (for development) than packed (for production).
If you want to set your application context either: 1. deploy an unpacked ear with it configured in application.xml (The standard J2EE way) 2. you can configure it in my.war/WEB-INF/jboss-web.xml (the proprietary JBoss way) 3. rename your war to <required-context>.war - common non-standard hack? All this and more is in : http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/jboss/contrib/jetty/FAQ?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup Let me know if you would like anything added.
