Are you "packaging" your web application as a zip file?

If not mistaken all JSP/Servlet web applications are to be packaged as a WAR(web archive) file not a zip archive.

You can use the "jar" command to archive your web application.

jar -cvf <web_appl_name>.war *

It is being deployed as a war file.

It will give me the powers of the gods. Not bad for a tiny ad:
