Try to read the documentation.
I've heard that sometimes it helps.
Not that sure about it but you can still try.

The documentation is a great idea, I'd also suggest taking a look at the acegi-security-sample-tutorial example that ships with Acegi.

Well, you better check out what it takes to get a servlet J2EE app up and running. You cannot just copy everything into some directory in /webapps and expect it to work.
You need a /WEB-INF directory, a web.xml etc.
The Tomcat site should provide some basic info on how to set it up right. Otherwise check the dir structure of the other applications in /webapps

If you feel the least unfamiliar with servlet applications I suggest that you wait a little with involving Acegi as I think it adds some complexity to it, and just get acquanted to Spring and webapp setup.

Good luck!

If you are using Tomcat, just drop the acegi-security-sample-tutorial.war in webapps and start Tomcat. It will extract it all for you. If you really want rename the war file to something you like and then it will be extracted as this name.
