jira-importer opened a new issue, #197: URL: https://github.com/apache/maven-war-plugin/issues/197
**[Christoffer Hammarström](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=kreiger)** opened **[MWAR-30](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MWAR-30?redirect=false)** and commented I have a small webapp with a small number of jsps, to overlay on a larger webapp. The larger webapp already has a web.xml and the small one doesn't need one. I can't build a war of the small webapp, because the war-plugin requires a web.xml. I realise that a war-file without a web.xml might not be considered a comple war-file, and i only need it to unzip on top of the larger webapp. Maybe packaging the small webapp in a zip would be better? --- **Attachments:** - [MWAR-30.patch](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12720468/MWAR-30.patch) (_9.39 kB_) **Issue Links:** - [MWAR-53](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MWAR-53) WAR plugin does not allow for ignoring the web.xml file (_**"duplicates"**_) 5 votes, 4 watchers -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
