Without a security manager, I still get problems. But they are different problems. e.g. Caused by: java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.util.logging.LoggingPermission control) ... Exception in thread "ContainerBackgroundProcessor[StandardEngine[Catalina]]" java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.lang.RuntimePermission setContextClassLoader) I'm not sure what is triggering this exception. But it's by-passed if I set a security policy. > 2. Do CATALINE_HOME and CATALINA_BASE point to the same directory?
