I'm glad to hear that Steve! to recap-- Get same version JVM installed on new tomcat Get same version Tomcat installed (with manager and admin working) on new Tomcat copy over jars from $CATALINA_BASE/shared/lib/*.* copy over class files from $CATALINA_BASE/shared/classes/*.*
if you see extra jars or class files located in either $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib or $CATALINA_HOME/common/classes read this http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/class-loader-howto.html once you feel you grasp the implications of what jars should be located in the common folder then copy jars and classes only on a as-needed basis All of your webapps live in a self contained package called WebAppName.war (confirm by viewing folders located at $CATALINA_BASE/webapps and all war files located at $CATALINA_BASE/webapps/*.war) you should use the manager of the new server to open each war file and carefully note any error messages at top of manager screen If the top of the manager screen displays errors then view the tail end of the log file located at $CATALINA_BASE/logs/HostName.YYYY-MM-DD.log As always we are here to help HTH M- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This e-mail message (including attachments, if any) is intended for the use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain information that is privileged, proprietary , confidential and exempt from disclosure.
