Hi,
I did not follow this thread actively, but the error message you get
suggests that the file
/var/tomcat4/webapps/time/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
is not there or not accessible. Have you checked:
- File names (upper/lower case, etc)
- file protection? (rwdx, etc)
The best way to check is to login as the user under which tomcat is runnig
and then perform a jar tf /var/tomcat4/webapps/time/timeservlet.war
I also noticed that you talk about webapp dir, where the error message
indicates it is looking for a webapps directory (the s is missing)
Regards,
Cor

Can you clarify this.
I have just tried the following...
1- remove the war file from the webapp dir
2- recreate the war file @jar cvf timeservlet.war *
3atry to intall using manager app from current location /var/tomcat4/,
same error : FAIL - Encountered exception java.io.FileNotFoundException:
/var/tomcat4/webapps/time/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
(No such file or directory)
THE FILE IS IN THE WAR FILE ON THE PATH SHOWN
3b try to install on /var/tomcat/webapps/
Same result.
What am I doing wrong...
common error is the war file is placed in webapps directory but is not
created there. jar cf myapp.war myapp from webapp dir is wrong,
jar cf myapp.war * from your application directory, then move the war
file up to webapp directory.

Hi all,
Can someone plz tell me how to install a web app packaged as a WAR file
on tomcat 4.0.1 ?
I've tried following the instructions in tomcat-docs but when I try them
I get a file not foud exception even though all the file in question is
in the
war file. (With the correct path).
I would appreciate any help as This is starting to drive me nuts.
thanks in advance
Alec.
