Hi, thanks for your answer

yes autodeploying is just put war file in the appbase dir.
It works witout errors if you don't have a context file to be copied in the Catalina dir.
but webapp without databases are not very common also you have many cases of webapps with a database connection using a pool, so a context file.

I agree with you about tomcat should not be able to write directly in the /etc/ dir but why not put the catalina dir in the tomcat sand box (/var/lib/tomcat6 if i am right) like it was for the previous release of tomcat (5.5) in the previous release of ubuntu (8.04 lts) - with the config dir in the /usr/share/tomcat5.5 
and a link to the /etc/ dir

So what should be done for this issue ?
