Consider installing guest-VM software such as VirtualBox, VMWare, etc. with a disk snapshot taken while you are in "broken mode". Then, you can play with the configuration, launching, etc. and roll-back at any time back into the broken state in order to try something else (or verify that your last effort was correct). I do this kind of thing all the time, and it is very effective. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.14 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJSJyDQAAoJEBzwKT+lPKRYoOwP/RcwIXqcHt6LoGk5Obnw42k3 /OfmNLATPVaAkvd8MTzQAM4GVJinnQjziSYPMNZqHy/trOjpuGk7tQI++NxsTnv5 VhvxUUQ++uX5xBad1E6QwA3D0NScAAvYIS4Z27O2/w0Fe2SjYIaUcIvCBvWJk6qO CgSE65A+BCE4OAoavzsDgp3aqNZlQhxlPjYaot2mGREff4Sbh1EkNW1DDB9z29ug qavBD+sCf0NonOO2p7EGZbTkABCAW1InRIz630RvF1UW26Q6x9e0wCQlrL1G7HsV JbRue06slztIIQsI7h9hnL28f/nKUrZb/5hZrV24UjUUhI3lyiQwn3uuqRnZKw7a WUMwhaLGnMFBczFsdPqqkd7duZ/wlJi8hm0nNHPotBhOWQ7mXZaUz1fMGecasalO gwmRTOk/BSUDUJcDVuLItT2bn6t6UO58THqo7UvzS+jhBEABiLL/A+YytdRQVViE AOZJwXlbWTbRdIFwgmssOD7mRniFQWHmNA3sUTbq8yVtfN+q9z6R3AHXqMvqSPsn IGGVJ25FzFtev5axnKvyGgfI8R68ha6tXPd+ZlLtxQ2gfa+xB+BexhvnDSYlPZ77 PSpYj4UlwuHm/aMnB3ySSh0QEcbCS1aCwdosQBLgbKWD40zD9Cxlt+Z86OAA0YGK mNe4jk53U8EL/7Eu5jJB =4PjX -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
