I'd rather have a post that's a little long and includes all the relevant details than one of the ever wonderful "It's broke ... please help me fix it." messages.
Can you look around for other <Context ...></Context> xml fragments that might be being used instead of the one in your webapp's META-INF/context.xml? In particular, see if tomcat's conf directory has a Catalina/localhost subdirectory or similar with an xml file named after your webapp. If it exists, delete it and restart. Also what Chris said ... although as I remember from the details you posted, that shouldn't be a problem as your WEB-INF/lib directory was empty. --David --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
