Salut Michele, Thanks for the tip. I didn't know about this option. However, I found what the problem was. If you look at my web.xml file, you'll see I fogot the 's' in <security-conStraint>. The most incredible thing is that Tomcat 5 didn't complain at all !!! And guess how I figured out ? I though there was a bug in the container so I downloaded Tomcat 4. And immediately this version complained about the mispelling... I'm quite surprised (and disappointed) because I did change the level of traces in the server.xml and no valuable information came out :-(. I hope this post will avoid other newbies to be stuck like I was.
