How to deploy war file to tomcat using command prompt?

Question

I have created a war file and put into tomcat/webapps. How to deploy a war file to tomcat using command prompt?

Answer 1

You can deploy the war file using tomcat manager app, http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/manager-howto.html#Deploy_A_New_Application_Remotely

If you want from command prompt, then as I know

• Stop tomcat (catalina.bat stop)
• copy war to webapp
• restart tomcat (catalina.bat run)
