I am performing a static deployment: copying a ROOT.war under the webapps directory, and then starting Tomcat (no other web applications). On most occasions, the deployment is successful. However, occasionally the deployment does not succeed, and the WAR is only partially unpacked. Subsequently stopping Tomcat, deleting the expanded webapp directory, and starting Tomcat again will (normally) result in a successful deployment. When this happens, I see no exceptions in the logs. I've looked at the Tomcat source responsible for WAR expansion, and found no clues. I have begun collecting data to establish whether the unpacking always stops at the same point in the WAR, but only have one data point so far. I have verified that the WAR unpacking stops at a sequential point (all files before that point are unpacked, and all files after that point have not been unpacked). In the single instance I have recorded, unpacking stops between two similar, and unremarkable HTML files. This problem has occurred on Solaris, Linux (Redhat), and Windows, so this problem is not platform-specific. I've searched the mailing list archives, and I can find no reference to others having the same problem. Can anyone offer an explanation or solution?
