Tomcat Deployment

So, I pulled up my sleeves and got to work. After all, if I want to switch from WebObjects to Tapestry, some configurations are in need to be done.

That's the problem, I think, with using open source applications. Sometimes the developers don't really care about the UI of their application or framework, and even though they made the best or one-of-a-kind application, users don't use it except for "hard core" people who really enjoy messing with the plumbings. I used to be like that - I think I still am - But for a seriously deployed application such as the Geekim Store I can't really fuff around writing XML files. By the way, at the moment, the site is written in ASP and is due to change to a better architectured and graphically enhanced site. This is what I actually do in my free time, even though I don't have much of it.

In spite of my last comment, I must say I was surprised to the better when I saw Cayenne's modeler and Tomcat's Manager. All that said, I still have one thing to complain about (for now): When I try to deploy my application, which is a tutorial application downloaded from the Tapestry site, I get the following message:

FAIL - Failed to deploy application at context path /taplet

Now, honestly, I can tell the context path - I chose them as input for the deployer. So what kind of information is that? "Sorry, no can do!"? How am I supposed to fix it?!
