web applications – Deploy “exploded” folder to Tomcat in Eclipse – Education Career Blog

I just installed Eclipse for Java EE developers, Created a New Project by checking out files through SVN from a repository.

I was able to successfully generate an “exploded” web app folder through an ANT build.

How do I deploy this exploded folder (not .war file) to Tomcat? Any configuration that needs to be done?

Thanks.

Just make an ant target that copies the folder directly into the deploy folder of tomcat, usually $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps. Tomcat should then deploy the app in it’s container.
