This may not be your problem, but I've seen the same "missing web.xml" problem before when trying to deploy and startup after a failed undeploy. The undeploy failed because one of my webapp files in the Tomcat directory was locked and couldn't be deleted (either by me in a text editor, or sometimes by Tomcat, which I've never been able to explain.)

The WAR file process completes but I do not get a working war file. Any ideas?
