Arnaud, thanks for the verification. I wondered if other people met the same problem and found that this is a known bug (http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16000, although reported for /WEB-INF/lib). I tried moving tomcat-docs to another location and deployed a tomcat-docs.xml containing the following, symlink-allowing "Resources" section, according to the documentation: <Resources className="org.apache.naming.resources.FileDirContext" allowLinking="true" docBase="" />
But it still doesn't work... I definitely hope they will fix it, otherwise one of the most powerful Linux features can't be used in web applications! Btw.: I've often asked myself why the symlinking works for the common/lib folder. Do you know the answer? -- Florian Steinsiepe [EMAIL PROTECTED]
