These are the host settings in server.xml:
name="localhost"
appBase="webapps"
unpackWARs="true"
autoDeploy="true"
deployOnStartup="false"

Where is it supposed to unpack the WAR files to? I would have
thought the work folder.
webapps/
(Well... "appBase")

OK good to know that at least for JAR's the "normal" place is the
work folder and *not* the temp folder.
markt> Maybe some custom "unpack to temp" code?
That's what I'm afraid of. :-\ What's weird(er) is that the default
TC apps like docs and manager are copied to the temp folder too.
Also, the subfolders start with a number, like "0-app1", "4-docs",
and "5-manager". Does that provide a clue, or is that just normal?
I think it points to a process outside of Tomcat's control.
Could the destination for unpacking the WAR files be changed from
default with a setting or an environment variable?
You can change the appBase on the <Host> but then you have to move your
WAR files, too.
Hope that helps,
