How can I deploy a .war file to Ignition/Jetty? I’ve copied the file into /usr/local/bin/ignition/webserver/webapps/ and it seems to force me to navigate to the “main” Ignition servlet.

We configure Jetty programmatically and treat it as “internal” to Ignition. I don’t think you’re going to be able to use it as a generic application server.
