This allows you to unzip a new Tomcat into a new CATALINA_HOME (e.g. /usr/local/tomcat/7.0.54), stopping the old JVM, changing the CATALINA_HOME environment variable to point to the new Tomcat, and re-launching. If things go badly, just change your CATALINA_HOME back to the old value and re-restart. Everything should be back the way it was and you can inspect *both* configurations to see what might be the problem. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJTh3KNAAoJEBzwKT+lPKRYWTEP/jqwXjEYvanuJUy9ucQQj3hO ODwP6al/nTibO+CG4JrKDCps/b3mKyzgePjen2a3NiImLXk2PGsqEh/QnOdiLscZ znzcb6tfdYegv9PBR5yuPaiXelAuSMUMlOE84bDBCBtZp4q0VZRfGsYIyW3fMfJT 21e6WcGYlIMng8SoIDlyJWUhv24mY+C3IBgrFCT6kHbCVAIXlkysSA30ysx3LTbl vT8LpLfKepXJEzhKGE6t7xTSlRYpngylhnv4ikwW8wx0V5zkAIgfTC4URPRxEVXv 5BNDgS/VgDUCShmpcl7Y/4RyXj73E/r+q0V/sU5YQCumYjnN5eHljyH5Z9yF/RqT ewe5QeNtG7J8Ii+5iaR+o1Lqo/O0nI+RhzEs5IeLioNSrSu/dhpbD5b0Pzx+bhBC /azeBZnRd9BkK1QWZXVlPsQS6Be4cwOZQmsuJyVEcVfVGHRcgfkBgoD5J/wZz4/1 YC9w9meetdZrUFpufKKV8Uw+WX6M3NadWp2c6JfkXUxZzEHSw2ikFOvQ5T8WYrd9 iSlco8xopPJvC65yt8+0sJK4vkYuOrypyponhyMdfUWz+Ldvc93YICiMOXzUAGRQ STZgk+xek9+BX0LGvAZXG6Ri6UJtNfoidjsH7+BOQBaUWjCQwjay3BgEaqhUKUG0 JPQylv6Wo9YJUDKtmrT9 =9Ut7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
