Hi
I am evaluating Websphere version 4 AEs which I downloaded from ibm.com
I have installed it and have created an EAR file with a single Web module.
I have successfully deployed the WAR file to Tomcat and run it.
I tried to deploy the EAR file to Websphere and get the following:

APPW0005E Commands called during application installation failed. Refer to
the logs for more information.
APPW0004E Application install or modify bindings action for the chosen
application failed.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----

I get the same when I try to deploy the WAR file.

Where are the errors written I have checked all the text files under
WebSphere\AppServer\logs to no avail.

Thanks

Do you have a context-root in the application.xml? I found that when the
context root is / (root) this problem could occur.. when you put a
context-root in the application.xml then you should be able to deploy. So
the only thing that would change is you would hit your servlet using
http://host:prot/context-root/alias rather than just http://host:prot/alias.
Just a thought,

Matt

Thanks - not sure if that is it...
I have tried to import the EAR file in the AAT and get the error listed at
end of this post.
It seems to be an XML parsing error in web.xml - which seems odd since
Tomcat had no trouble with it...

Here is the application.xml and web.xml files:
