State: received
Priority: medium
Severity: serious
Confidence: public
Environment: 
   Release: tomcat3.2.1
   JVM Release: jdk1.3
   Operating System: Windows -NT
   OS Release: 4
   Platform: NT

Synopsis: 
Unable to Unwrap the WAR file if placed in different context. And not reading the web.xml file.

Description:
I have installed tomcat in D:\jakarta-tomcat3.2.1
I am running this in stand alone mode & it is working fine.
But if I add a new Context in a diffrent drive f:\webapps\mycontext in server.xml file, it is not unwraping the .war file. If I mannually unwrap & copy the contents it is recognizing the index.html. But not reading the web.xml file & failling to load the servlet. Same .war if I put in D:\jakarta-tomcat3.2.1\webapps\mycontext it is unwrapping & working fine.

NOTE: D:\ & F:\ are partitions on my hard disk.(Not network drives)
