No I don't think it was because I was initially confused as to the package structure of the deployed booking.war that I tried to mimic...here's a question. Why does seam setup not generate a project structure or build.xml that is equivalent to the seam examples? It would be trivial for me to duplicate the war setup for my project to be deployed to tomcat if all I had to do was run ant deploy.tomcat on MY project. As it is, it isn't trivial to move that target or Its dependency targets over to the generated build.xml because of the project structure differences.
