java help: can't update manifest file for jar

I'm having troubles updating the manifest file for my jar file. I have a customized manifest that I want to use to update the default one in the jar.

here's my dir:
03/15/2003 12:15p <DIR> .
03/15/2003 12:15p <DIR> ..
07/23/2003 02:08p 1,235 Temp.java
07/23/2003 02:10p 1,211 Temp.class
07/23/2003 02:25p 16 mymanifest
3 File(s) 2,462 bytes

here's the command I used and the output:
D:\Java>jar -cvfm temp.jar mymanifest .
added manifest
adding: Temp.java(in = 1235) (out= 535)(deflated 56%)
adding: Temp.class(in = 1211) (out= 767)(deflated 36%)
adding: mymanifest(in = 16) (out= 18)(deflated -12%)

It does NOT update the default manifest. What am I doing wrong?

This is the most frustrating thing EVER! I'm following instructions perfectly and it's not working. I did get it to work once, but it appeared to be by the same method that's been failing for countless times... :|

edit: Nevermind, I got it to work again. It seems a bit fickle, but it did work eventually.....
