ant emulation of "Upload a WAR file to install"
I am using ant 1.6 and tomcat 4.1.29.
I have set my webapps directory to someplace
other than the usual place. When I use
the /manager/html/list application through
my browser, I can use the "Upload a WAR file to install"
form to put my war file in the webapps directory,
unpack it and run it. This is exactly the behavior
I would like to emulate in ant, but I do not see
how. I have played around with the "install" and
"deploy" tasks, but they do not operate the same
as the upload form does. How can I do what the
form does using ant?
Thanks.

Thanks. I'll give that a try... when does tomcat notice
the war file?

You just need ant to copy the war into your APPBASE directory. Then
tomcat will do the rest, assuming that your host (in server.xml) is
configured to autoDeploy="true" and unpackWARs="true".
