Thanks Wendy for the response.

I have removed the full directory structure under my merchant.jar so (merchant) 
directory and restarted, but it did not work either.  I am not familiar with the 
manager app, I would like to try that. I looked under programs but do not seen an 
entry for it. Do I call it from the cmd line?

Thanks,
Scott

IME, Tomcat will not auto-expand the .war file if the directory structure
already exists.  I use the Manager app to remove the existing webapp, (which
deletes the .war file and the directory structure,) then deploy the new .war
file, which expands and starts.
