    I've got CSWS_JAVA v2.1 [Tomcat v4.1] installed on OpenVMS Alpha v7.3-1.
    For some strange reason, I cannot get it to unpack webapp archive files
    automatically. I've gone through the following steps:

    1) Build my WAR file in Eclipse on a workstation.

    2) Test deployment of the WAR file with a location installation of Tomcat
    v4.1 on my workstation. The WAR file gets automatically unpacked.

    3) Copy the WAR file to the APACHE$COMMON:[JAKARTA.TOMCAT.webapps]
    directory on my Alpha system. I use FTP for this and transfer the file in
    binary mode.

    4) Stop & restart Tomat on my Alpha system.

    5) Attempt to browse to the webapp [on the Alpha] using Mozilla on my
    workstation. I get a HTTP 404 error indicating that the requested resource
    is not available.

    In the server.xml configuration file for Tomcat the "unpackWars" and
    "autoDeploy" settings are both "true".

    Any idea what's going wrong?

    TIA,

    Chuck
