I have .war file of my project. So what should I do where should I place those war 开发者_如何学Cfiles ??

Kindly help me

This is usually in the webapps folder of the tomcat instance. By default there is also a web app called ROOT so look for that folder and put the app in the folder above ROOT. Read the tomcat docs to enable the manager application (you need to edit users XML file to create manager role user and password). Then go to the manager URL and it will let you upload your war. You should then see where it is deploying it on disk.
