I been working on this Servlet project all morning and now suddenly I cannot get eclipse to export the project to a war file. I tried restarting eclipse and cleaning the project but I just get the same result. Any ideas?

Well I guess I should have read the whole error as it does say that the problem is it can’t write to the file. The interesting part was what was causing the file to be locked. Firefox had the file open so eclipse couldn’t write to the file. I have no idea why firefox had the file open though I was using it to upload the war file to the server.
