I have an ant project in eclipse IDE. Ant build creates a war inside dist folder. I copy that war to Tomcat's webapps folder and successfully deploy it. Now I add Tomcat to the eclipse and try to deploy the war in here and it ignores the war file. It does not give any exception bu does nothing useful as well. Below is the complete Tomcat log -

It is a Dynamic Web Module project. Am I missing some configuration while setting up the Tomcat in Eclipse ?
