I am trying to deploy a war file to tomcat 6.0.27. This war file has spring conf and java beans and also the regular html etc. This war file deploys successfully on a tomcat installed on a windows platform. However when trying to deploy to Linux, following is the error that is displayed in the tomcat logs: (and the application is not deployed)
SEVERE: ContainerBase.addChild: start:
LifecycleException: Error initializaing : java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: The archive [jar:file:/var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/afghlcustomer.war!/] is malformed and will be ignored: an entry contains an illegal path [/]
