Perhaps I did not explain well. This is production. The file is jq.war. I copy jq.war to {catalina_home}/webapps and autodeploy tries to remove the jq directory, before it explodes the jq.war. It fails to do that and leaves behind webapps/jq/jq.log. I have to stop tomcat, remove that log file, restart tomcat. I thought that autodeploy would take care of that, but I guess not.

If so, that's really a bad idea. What would happen if the .war were not expanded? In any event, you could put in a listener for your webapp, and have it close and remove the extra file you created. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
