web.xml fine on windows box.. parse error when deployed on unix

Locally on my windows xp machine my .war application works correctly.

When I deploy to unix I get the following error;

SEVERE: Parse error in default web.xml

org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Premature end of file.

HOWEVER, if I "touch" the web.xml file tomcat is able to pick it up and parse it correctly and all is well.

Any thoughts? Thanks!
