Chuck, I fully agree about IE but the people in charge don't wanna hear it. The fact that this is a third party tomcat install confuses me even more than if it was normal, and definitely frustrating that the logs could be anywhere. If we pretend I did have a normal install, are there any extra steps involved going from 5 to 6 that could be useful? Because going from 5.5.17 to 5.5.28 was extremely easy, following the steps I said in the original email. I do plan on experimenting with a vanilla install tomorrow (I get access tomorrow afternoon since everyone will be gone) but not sure how helpful it will be given the third party nature.
