Deepa,
You can deploy a WAR file on the admin console? How do you specify it is a WAR instead of an EAR? It looks like WebSphere thinks you are deploying an EAR.

In the future, please specify what version of WebSphere you are using.

[Cameron Wallace McKenzie]

Are you deploying through the admin console, or through a JACL script?

If you're having a problem with a script, I've got a few examples on my website if you'd like to see them:

Cheers.

I am using IBM WEBSPHERE APPLICATION SERVER, v. 5.1, and On admin console, Using the option Install New Application, I am specifying my war file name in local path and when I click Next it gives me above error.
What is wrong with this I am not able to understand?
Do anyone has idea about this?
Thanks for the reply.

I found the place why it has occured. Actually 2 of the jars required for project were corrupted. Hence war file was not getting deployed.
BTW Thanks for your precious reply.
