--- Comment #3 from Konstantin Kolinko <knst.koli...@gmail.com> --- Note that it succeeded in parsing XML markup (the tag of '<url-pattern>'), but contents of the tag is parsed as garbage. This is rather odd. Those patterns are English as well. Maybe those web.xml files were processed, overwrittem, broken by some tool? Note that server.xml was processed correctly, otherwise the server wouldn't start. Though a difference is that server.xml uses attributes to configure values, while web.xml uses plain text content wrapped by elements. Maybe try a different XML parser implementation. E.g. place a recent copy of Apache Xerces-J into "endorsed" directory. From your logs its location is: -Djava.endorsed.dirs=/u/aes/apache-tomcat-8.0.33/endorsed Some (unrelated) oddity in the logs: VersionLoggerListener.log Command line argument: -Djava.class.path=. VersionLoggerListener.log Command line argument: -Djava.class.path=/u/aes/apache-tomcat-8.0.33/bin/bootstrap.jar:/u/aes/apache-tomcat-8.0.33/bin/tomcat-juli.jar Where the first incorrect value of "-Djava.class.path" argument comes from? Note that such questions are normally asked on the users mailing list. You need help from fellow users to help find the root cause here. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
