WLST deploy fails but works fine via admin console

Question

RHEL 5.6
Jrockit 1.6.0_20-R28.1.0-4.0.1
Weblogic 10.3
Alfresco 3.3.4 (295)
Oracle 10.2.0.4
I'm experiencing problems when attempting to deploy a WAR using WLST using the below python script. If I deploy this WAR using the Weblogic Admin Console, all works well. When I attempt the same deployment using WLST, the deployment 'appears' to work and the script shows no sign of error BUT the application does NOT show up at all in the admin console. I'm using the same authentication information in both scenarios.
connect(username,password,'t3://' + adminServer + ':8001')
try:
edit()
startEdit(waitTimeInMillis=30000)
except:
traceback.print_exc(file=sys.stdout)
print "Failed to aquire edit lock"
# cannot undo when we do not has the lock
#undo(defaultAnswer='y')
#stopEdit()
sys.exit(1)
try:
for app in cmo.getAppDeployments():
if app.getName() == appname:
print ('Application \'' + appname + '\' is already deployed, removing previous deployment...')
undeploy(appname)
break
except:
traceback.print_exc(file=sys.stdout)
print "Undeploy failed"
undo(defaultAnswer='y')
stopEdit(defaultAnswer='y')
sys.exit(1)
try:
deploy(appname, source, target, upload='true', block='true')
except:
traceback.print_exc(file=sys.stdout)
print "Deploy failed"
undo(defaultAnswer='y')
stopEdit(defaultAnswer='y')
sys.exit(1)
try:
save()
activate()
except:
traceback.print_exc(file=sys.stdout)
print "Activate failed"
undo(defaultAnswer='y')
stopEdit(defaultAnswer='y')
sys.exit(1)
disconnect()
Is it possible to deploy the application unzipped?

Hi Sebastian,
You need to be connected to master database when executing GRANT VIEW SERVER. Try the following it will work:
USE [master]
GO
GRANT VIEW SERVER STATE TO [Domain\User]
