Hello all, I've searched high and low before posting tried every test I could think of before posting here... This problem seems too simple to be a bug, but can't find a method of resolving it. I decided to skip the port of our application (ran fine on WAS 6 - JVM 1.5) that was that originated the problem and boiled it down to a WAR with 1 servlet that attempts to do a JNDI lookup to get a datasource. (This test web app works in WAS) Condensed details below.
I hope someone can shed light on what is going on, thanks! -Pete The details: -Tomcat 6 - JVM 1.5 -WAR file created in Rational 6 -App does DB2 lookups (not even concerned about the code itsel yet) -Resources defined correctly in WEB-INF/web.xml (auto generated by Rational 6) -Added META-INF/context.xml -Added <WatchedResource>META-INF/context.xml</WatchedResource> in conf/context.xml -Automatic loading of app generates: conf/Catalina/localhost/TestWeb.xml - It looks like the parsing problem is in web.xml (from below error), but I could not find anything wrong there. I did not modify conf/web.xml and WEB-INF/web.xml is auto generated. So I started looking in TestWeb.xml and simplified it. Seems anything that I put in that file fails other than just: (no more errors in log file) <Context> </Context> These even fail: - <Context><Resource /></Context> - <Context><Resource name="test"/></Context> - Also had all details in the Context tag for the app and Resource tag as described in the documentation for DataSources (incl. DB2 datasources) I also tried putting the Resource definition in: -GlobalResources block of server.xml -The error generated is: (from catalina*.log) FINE: Processing context [/TestWeb] configuration file C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\T omcat 6.0\conf\Catalina\localhost\TestWeb.xml null Jan 26, 2007 12:13:17 PM org.apache.tomcat.util.digester.Digester endElement SEVERE: End event threw exception java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException ... at org.apache.tomcat.util.IntrospectionUtils.callMethod1(IntrospectionUtils.java:899) at org.apache.catalina.startup.SetNextNamingRule.end(SetNextNamingRule.java:98) at org.apache.tomcat.util.digester.Rule.end(Rule.java:229) ... at org.apache.catalina.deploy.NamingResources.addResource(NamingResources.java:275) ... 47 more Jan 26, 2007 12:13:17 PM org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig processContextConfig SEVERE: Parse error in default web.xml java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.tomcat.util.digester.Digester.createSAXException(Digester.java:2726) ... ____________________________________________________________________________________ It's here!
