Deployment Problem: Disappearing Files?

Hi, I am attempting to deploy a web app. I compile it and make it a war. I restart tomcat and the war is distributed. I then go onto the internet and type in: http://localhost:8080/manager/deploy?path=/myapp
a few different things have happened when I have typed in the same thing.

The most prevelant error is: FAIL - Failed to deploy application at context path /myapp...is this error because of my build file or because of my web.xml file?? or neither?

One time the stupid thing actually deployed. I went back and checked my directory and all my files were gone! The folders were still there but the files were not there, so then I had a web app with no content...does anyone know how the files were missing like that. All these other tries the whole app dissaears each time I deploy any suggestions??

Thanks!!

Hi kvarnerexpress,

can you elaborate further as to what steps are you following.
are you placing the war file in the webapp folder.
is the war folder properly structured. are there any error messages showing on the console when you start tomcat?
if possible quote the part of the log where the exception is occuring..

Cheers.

Running .java Or .class Files From Runtime - (1)

from an API and outputs the result to the API (like someAPI.submitResult(myResult), which checks the
results against the sample values. The idea is that the student is able to click a browse button and
locate their .java or .class file, which the GUI then launches. So my question is if I can launch
this class as part of the GUI process so that the API actually is actually part of the GUI process.
It's a bit backwards really - like launching the API first and then adding in the component that
uses the API during runtime. But there is an advantage of doing it this w...
