There are two significant reasons for sites to stay up to date on server software such as Tomcat: 1) Critical security issues are published once the fix is available in a released version. By refusing to upgrade, and making public the fact that your site is running an ancient version, one is sending out an invitation to hackers. That's the irresponsibility part. 2) Tomcat support on this mailing list is done by unpaid volunteers. I doubt that any of us have an interest in turning the clock back four years to experiment with a superseded version where the problem (especially ill-described ones, such as this) might well have been fixed somewhere along the way. It would greatly benefit the OP if he at least tried to reproduce the problem on a current version. If the problem is resolved, he would have considerable leverage to get management to approve a true upgrade; if the problem persists, then we now have something more pertinent to go on. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
