As the the documentation says (.war ) in the webapps should be extracted and
installed by tomcat during startup, but here I am not getting them as so.

what to do to make them working?

Surinder,
Make sure you delete the directory the war will be extracted into....
For example, You have a context call "test" that resides in the directory
"<tomcat home>/webapps/test" Then you put your "test.war" file into the <tomcat
home>/webapps directory and delete the test directory. If you restart tomcat the
war file will be unpacked.
