  • Open a command prompt and browse to your (unziped) app dir, lets say it is in ROOT folder of tomcat dir, so go to <Tomcat_home>\webapps\ROOT

  • Use the java archive command 'jar' to bundle up your application

      jar -cvf mango-1.10.0.war mango-1.10.0

In English: "compress everything in this directory into a file named mango-1.10.0.war" (c=create, v=verbose, f=file)
