I had catalina.jar in WEB-INF/lib. It's needed because we have an
implementation of Realm to store an encrypted tomcat password users enter in
the webapp. If I remove it and add the catalina.jar from tomcat_home/lib to
the classpath, I have to change the signature from
org.apache.catalina.realm.RealmBase.Digest(String, String) to
org.apache.catalina.realm.RealmBase.Digest(String, String, String). Then the
code compiles ok, but I get this error when building with ant to make a war
file:
error: method Digest in class RealmBase cannot be applied to given types;
[javac] encryptedOldPwd =
RealmBase.Digest(oldTomcatPassword, digestAlg,null);
Should I not be writing code that needs classes from catalina.jar?
Thanks,
Jane

I'll admit it's not clear from the version number which versions are beta,
released, etc. You have to look at the ChangeLog:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/changelog.html
Each release contains a release date and (optionally) a comment on the quality
of the build. The first non-beta version of Tomcat 7.0.x was 7.0.6. Tomcat
7.0.1 (distinct from 7.0.10) was actually "not released"
probably because it was broken for some reason.
When the Tomcat team rolls a release, there is a vote. If there aren't enough
"yes" votes (or any "no" votes), the release is abandoned but the number isn't
re-used.
Anyhow, there's no reason to attempt to migrate from Tomcat 6.0.x to Tomcat
7.0.x by shooting for an "early" version of Tomcat 7.0.x: you should go for the
latest.
Also, if you mistype and say "Tomcat 7.0.1" instead of "Tomcat 7.0.10"
or "Tomcat 7.0.4" instead of "Tomcat 7.0.40" (or "Tomcat 7.0.41"), don't get an
offended when people tell you you are doing it wrong.
Just say "whoops, I meant 7.0.40" and move on.
Back to your original problem... have you modified the Tomcat 7 installation in
any way -- other than dropping your WAR file/exploded WAR into the webapps/
directory)?
Also, do you have any Tomcat-related JAR files in your webapp's WEB-INF/lib
directory?
