Dumb websphere question

[eric mcentee]

I hope someone can give me a hint here. I have a Weblogic 7 webapp (nothing big, just a servlet, a class, and a web.xml) that I have put into a WAR.
I am trying to use the Websphere Application Assembly Tool for Websphere 5.0 Network Deployment. I use the Install New Application menu, and have selected the WAR, entered a Context name, and click next. I get the following error:

 java.lang.ClassCastException: com.ibm.etools.commonarchive.impl.ArchiveImpl

Any ideas?
Thanks for any feedback.

Can you give more details like what you mean by weblogic app war?
Try to create a war using AAT of websphere .. I dont think you shld get a problem that way..
I have tried to use war and ear file which I did not build in Websphere and tried to use it and that did not work for me.
Hope this helps
