war fie not expanding, creating directory

["Faine, Mark" <Ma...@msfc.nasa.gov>]

I have created a war file primarily as a container for a group of servlets.
Strange thing is that it is not being unpacked by Tomcat 4.0.6 even though i
have set unpackWAR to true and if I unpack it manually it just extracts the
WEB-INF and related files to the webapps directory and does not create the
root directory from the name of the archive.
 
What am I doing wrong?
 
Thanks,
