Why is that a problem? Filling it in (if it's needed) is one of *your* migration tasks. > Here is the relevant portion of the server.xml file: Which is seriously broken. You can't simply copy items from an old version of Tomcat into a newer one; you need to read the doc for the target version and implement the required settings. > <Service name="Applications"> I'm curious; why did you change the Service name from Catalina? Doing so just makes things confusing, since you've now got a one-off configuration unlike anyone else's. > <Engine defaultHost="myhost" name="ApplicationEngine"> The <Engine> name and the <Service> name should be the same, again to avoid confusion. > <Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger" > prefix="myhost_log." suffix=".txt" timestamp="true"/> <Logger> elements haven't been supported in years, certainly not in any 5.5.x version. > <Context displayName="myhost ROOT Application" > docBase="/var/apache/tomcat/myhost" path="" debug="9"> > </Context> <Context> elements should not be placed in server.xml - that's extremely bad practice. Also, it's illegal to have docBase and appBase the same; erratic behavior is guaranteed. Your default webapp should be located in [appBase]/ROOT (not [appBase]), and its <Context> file in [appBase]/ROOT/META-INF/context.xml (all names are case sensitive, regardless of platform). The path attribute should never be used, since that's derived from the location of the webapp's <Context> element, and the docBase attribute must not be used unless the webapp is located outside of the appBase directory. Since this particular <Context> doesn't specify anything of interest, it doesn't need to exist. And finally, there is no debug attribute for the <Context> element. > <Context docBase="/raidweb/web2/sessions/guid" path="/pdfs"> > </Context> The above <Context> should be placed in $TOMCAT_BASE/conf/ApplicationEngine/myhost/pdfs.xml, not in server.xml, and the path attribute removed. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
