I use Tomcat 6.0 and Eclipse 3.0 under Linux and I try to deploy a WAR in Tomcat. The problem is that the server is managed by Eclipse and I have some Eclipse project deployed. I tried to modify the server.xml file then launch Tomcat via Eclipse but it doesn't work:
Could not load the Tomcat server configuration at /Servers/Tomcat v6.0 Server at localhost-config. The configuration may be corrupt or incomplete.
I tried to extract the war in the webapps directory but the webapp is still inaccessible.
What is the best practice to deploy a War ?

Perhaps the simplest way to deploy a WAR file to Tomcat is to copy the file to Tomcat's webapps directory. Copy and paste WAR files into Tomcat's webapps directory to deploy them. Tomcat monitors this webapps directory for changes, and if it finds a new file there, it will attempt to deploy it.
Java web applications are usually packaged as WAR files for deployment. These files can be created on the command line or with an IDE, like Eclipse. After deploying the WAR file, Tomcat unpacks it and stores all the project files from the webapps directory in a new directory named after the project.
If all you have is a binary WAR (no source code), it cannot be installed within Eclipse. This can happen in certain scenarios outside of normal development workflows. Here's the work-around solution:
tomcat-users.xml file to enable adminhttp://localhost:8080/manager/html
