Question

I have created a war file and put into tomcat/webapps. How to deploy a war file to tomcat using command prompt?

Answer 1

As you have already copied the war file to tomcat/webapps, you just need to restart the tomcat to deploy the war file.

Command prompt:

set tomcatPath=D:\apache-tomcat-7.0.50
call "%tomcatPath%"\bin\catalina.bat **stop**
sleep -m 3000 
call "%tomcatPath%"\bin\catalina.bat jpda **start**
