I found the problem: It seems that JDK 1.3 does follow symlinks while JDK 1.4 does not. The JARs are all in /usr/share/java/ with symlinks from /usr/share/tomcat4/{server,common}/lib/ (in the class path). You have to add this to catalina.policy so the XML parser (from /usr/share/java/xerces.jar) can read server.xml on JDK 1.3: grant codeBase "file:/usr/share/java/-" { permission java.security.AllPermission; }; -- Stefan Gybas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
