I'm back to work on thursday so I won't be able to try any suggested fixes
till then. I'll let you know.
Off topic is it wrong to reply to two emails like this in one mail (for
threading purposes?)

Wow good spot. I wouldn't have noticed maybe this is causing the problem.

Its being deployed once per host. I need more than one because the standard
manager install only works for one host.
This is similar to the instructions at
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/manager-howto.html
A default Tomcat installation includes the manager. To add an instance of
the Manager web application Context to a new host install the
manager.xmlcontext configuration file in the
$CATALINA_BASE/conf/[enginename]/[hostname] folder. Here is an example:
<Context path="/manager" debug="0" privileged="true"
docBase="/usr/local/kinetic/tomcat6/server/webapps/manager">
</Context>
If you have Tomcat configured to support multiple virtual hosts (websites)
you would need to configure a Manager for each.

Thats what I did a direct copy. I only started changing it after I ran into
the problem even then I don't think I changed it much.

Sorry this is a miss-communication on my behalf. What I meant was not that
its being deployed twice but that I was sure that tc only reloaded the
context that had been altered.
