1. Do you have default web application (aka ROOT)? (Error pages will not be able to render themselves if the request cannot be mapped to a web application. You will see it as a blank page, though with correct HTTP response code). 2. Configure an access log, if you do not have one. (E.g. uncomment it in server.xml). What HTTP response status is recorded in the log? 200? 400? 500? If a request is incorrect it may result in a blank page (as processing is stopped early as "error 400, incorrect request"). 3. Anything in other logs? 4. How did you install 6.0.37? Did you run it with correct permissions? (E.g. if one starts Tomcat as root, shuts it down, and then tries to start it again as a non-root user, permissions on directories created during the first run will prevent it from functioning correctly). 5. Do you run with SecurityManager being enabled?
