Thanks for the tip, Benjamin.
Well, I was able to successfully deploy the app by "uploading" it
using the Tomcat Manager app. I'm not sure why this was different
than me dropping the .war file into the <tomcat_home>/webapps
directory and restarting....as I am able to do that with all my other
.war files on this same machine/configuration.
So, it is working, but I am not comfortable as to why it is working.
I will take your advice and look further into the docs for
java.net.URL.
Thank you for the help.
Rob

re: The term spec can be clarified by looking at the javadocs for
java.net.URL or the relevant URL specifications. In this context it
probably means that theres a jar: url in use that doesnt end in
!/; maybe the url for the war file in the deploy command.

Thanks for the response Yoav.
Yes it wouldnt surprise me if I used the path attribute incorrectly
as I tried that method only as a last resort. For years now I have
just
dropped the .war file into the webapps directory and restarted.
And that method is still failing for this webapp....it does not
expand
the .war file into a directory upon starting Tomcat
I will re-investigate the path attribute but in the meantime any
other
ideas about what no !/ in spec may mean?
Thanks
Rob

re: Hi
You might want to re-read the Supported Manager Commands section of
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/manager-howto.html#Deplo
y%20A%20New%20Application%20Remotely. Specifically youre using the
path
attribute wrong. I think you want the war parameter in addition to
the
path (which is simply the context path not the disk path to the WAR
file).

[email protected]Subject: Deploying webapp getting error no !/ in spec
I am getting a no !/ in spec error message (see stack below) when trying
to deploy a webapp myapp.war:
Here are some other data points:
1) Tomcat 5.0.27 Solaris 8 jsdk1.4.2
2) I *can* successfully deploy a different webapp on this
installation so
it is something specific to the webapp I guess
3) I can successfully deploy the same actual myapp.war file on a
WinXP
box
running Tomcat5.0.19
4) I get this error if I deploy using:
http://localhost:8080/manager/deploy?path=/usr/local/tomcat-5.0.27/webapps/myapp.war
....but if I merely put the war file in the webapps directory and restart
Tomcat I just get WARNING of:
WARNING: Exception while expanding web application archive myapp.war
I am having trouble guessing what no !/ in spec could mean and therefore
Im not sure where to continue my troubleshooting. Does anyone know what
that means?
Thanks
Rob
