Sounds like you aren't properly shutting-down your logging system when
your webapp undeploys. That would result in the file staying open and
thus being unavailable for delete.

I agree with Pid that putting application log files into the
deployment directory is a bad idea in general: they'll get deleted
when you redeploy :)
