Hi Sravan,

Copy your directory in files folder inside your cookbook and use cookbook_file resource.

cookbook_file ‘/var/lib/tomcat/webapps/litpro.war’ do
source 'litpro.war’
action :create
end

In the above example my litpro.war is in files/default directory.It will copy to webapps folder inside my server.

Thanks sunil for your support

You are Welcome.
