Remote deployment of war file using /manager fails

           Summary: Remote deployment of war file using /manager fails
           Product: Tomcat 4
           Version: 4.0.3 Final
          Platform: Sun
        OS/Version: Solaris
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Webapps:Administration
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: Jason.King@Sun.com


Remote deployment of a warfile to Tomcat using the /manager utility fails.
Cannot find war contents. Deployment of the same war from the local filesystem
proceeds correctly. The problem is therefore possibly with the manager, not the
war itself. If the context directory exists, local deployment also fails.
Additional details below.

Thanks

The response to the HTTP command is sucessful deployment.


If the war is copied locally (/tmp) and installed via the manager, deployment is
successful.i.e
http://myTarget:8080/manager/install?path=/thunder&war=jar:file:/tmp/thunder.war!/

But this only works if the context path is not present.
i.e it fails if the following directory is present:
/export/home/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.3/webapps/thunder

In all cases, the reponse to commands entered is:
"OK - Installed application at context path /thunder"

The "http" commands are executed from a netscape 6 browser, not running on
either of the hosts invloved (myHost, myTarget)
