Jim Probably my bad in interpreting the error message. I thought that the error about a UserDatabaseRealm would reference tomcat-users.xml instead of server.xml. An XML-aware editor is probably a good thing to have in your bag of tools. There are lots of freely available ones. Some make catching errors easier than others. Just find one that you like. I tend to use jEdit, since it's free and cross-platform. You're welcome - glad you found the problem. Also, thanks for posting that your problems has been resolved. Lots of people don't do this, which makes reading the archives for solutions more difficult than it should be. . . . . coffee before responding /mde/ . . . . single malt scotch after responding /jwb/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org ----------------------------------------- This e-mail and any files transmitted with it may contain privileged or confidential information.
