War File Not Unpacking.

[Robert Priest <Ro...@bentley.com>]

Running freshly build version of TC 4.1 from cvs tree.
Using JAVA_HOME:       c:\j2sdk1.4.1_01

I have a web application which has only one jsp page in it (and an
index.html page).
The jsp page uploads a file using commons-fileupload.

If I just have a plain old directory containing under the webapps dir,
everything runs fine.

When I package it up as uploadfile.war:

- when starting tomcat, war file does not get unpacked despite having the
following in server.xml:
<Host name="localhost" debug="9999" appBase="webapps" 
       unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true">

- the webapps fails to load (of course) with the following error:
2003-04-02 15:23:11 StandardContext[/uploadfile]: Processing start(),
current available=false
2003-04-02 15:23:11 StandardContext[/uploadfile]: Configuring default
Resources
2003-04-02 15:23:11 StandardContext[/uploadfile]: Resources start failed:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Document base ..\webapps\uploadfile does
not exist or is not a readable directory


My web.xml file seems to be valid because it runs when placed under webapps
as a directory. Can anyone tell me what might be my issue?

The following is what my web.xml file looks like:
