Yes I also encounter this problem with Tomcat 5.0.28 on a Wintel box.
However it did not occur with 5.0.18. Neither does it occur on MacOS.
Looks like something was broken recently, because it's working with 5.0.18
on another Wintel box which I have not upgraded.
I believe Tomcat is unable to delete the war file for some reason, so the
file remains locked.
Maybe this is a global problem on Wintel boxes because I also noticed that
in my servlet, deleting a file that I just created to temporarily save an
upload, also fails randomly.
Could this be related to permissions ?
