It depends on your service, if you have shared JSP or Java web hosting.
When you ftp or SSH in, you are dropped
/home/username/
Upload your tomcat webapp here:
AppBase: /home/username/yourdomain.com/tomcat/webapps/

Or you can use Tomcat Control within your Siteworx control panel to upload your war file.
