Thank Subir,

The link does help me to fix the problem. After creating a context for my web
component DistributedInputOutput in the server.xml file. Tomcat is no longer
unpack my web componemt DistributeInputOutput.war at startup. Tomcat complains
the directory is not accessible. In fact Tomcat will not unpack any web
components said myWebComp.war when there is a Context defined in the server.xml.
However, Tomcat does unpack other web components when the server.xml does not
contains a Context defined for this web component.  I come to a conclusion is
that the Context is used for web component that need not to be unpacked when
Tomcat startup. Another the way to say this is that if I need the web component
to be unpack when Tomcat startup, then I should not defined a Context for that
web component in the server.xml. Please let me know if this is not the case.

Thank,
Kam
