deploying war with META-INF/context.xml included results in error

           Summary: deploying war with META-INF/context.xml included results
                    in error
           Product: Tomcat 5
           Version: 5.0.27
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Catalina
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: rbetjes@ecomsulting.nl


Deploying a war file (by dropping it in de webapps dir) called test.war witch
includes an context.xml file in a dir called META-INF, results in directory
called test.xml created in the conf/Catalina/localhost/ directory.
The war file is correctly unpacked in the webapps dir.

Next the server reports an error in the catalina.out log like:

A workaround forr the moment is to remove the faulty directory and manually
copying the correct context.xml file from de unpacked webapp to the
conf/Catalina/localhost/ directory and calling it test.xml

success,
