Given that they don't seem very responsive to other issues (leaking memory like a sieve), they will probably tell you that their reporting solution is first-rate and there's no reason to take it out-of-band. Depending on the types of reports, you could look into using JasperReports (no-cost, OSS... we use it). You *do* have to write your own reports, but the framework is there and no webapp is required unless you want one. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.17 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk9es0QACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PD/dwCgt7lnSAwIsh0Bl0ozz0tRCocc O0wAnjLNVWIq22RnWONGI1GX9oXK4Xlt =v2wl -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
