           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".
