http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=43339 Summary: Special characters like german umlauts in server.xml comments cause server to stop working Product: Tomcat 4 Version: 4.1.31 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows Server 2003 Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P3 Component: Unknown AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] A comment placed in the section <Service name="Tomcat-Standalone"> of the server.xml config file contained a german Umlaut (like in "Diese Änderungen können"). This caused the server to refuse to start up - the service was stopped as soon as it was started, reporting "The Java Virtual Machine has exited with a code of 1, the service is being stopped." to the Windows event log. The comment was inserted just before <Connector className="org.apache.catalina.connector.http.HttpConnector" Workaround: Dont use umlauts. Fix: Inside comments, everything should be ignored except --> (dash dash greater than) This bug is very annoying, as the user gets no information about what causes the error, not even something like "error in config". -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
