I am completely new to configuring tomcat. I'm trying to setup apache in front and just have tomcat act as a servlet. So far everything is working fairly well and I got it all setup, but the only thing I can't figure out is the war files work now.

Before it would deploy the war file say I had 

 tomcat/webapps/ROOT
 tomcat/webapps/manager
 tomcat/webapps/app1
 tomcat/webapps/app1.war

I throw the app1.war in there and have it extract. Then I go to mywebsite.com/app1 and it comes up at that url.

How do I get that to work again to where I can deploy the war file and go the app?

-Thanks

Not sure if I understood your question well.
You could go to mywebsite.com/manager end click there on undeploy at your app. To access tomcat manager you have to edit tomcat/conf/tomcat-user.xml to something like that and restart tomcat:

<role rolename="tomcat"/>
<role rolename="manager-gui"/>
<user username="tomcat" password="password" roles="tomcat,manager-gui"/>

You also could stop tomcat and then remove tomcat/webapps/app1 and tomcat/webapps/app1.war and copy the app1.war there again.

But not sure, if it's that what you meant.
