You still didn't get the point: it's a *requirement* for a XML-parser to abort processing when an error (including what you call "binary garbage") is encountered. Whether or not the error is inside a comment or not is completely irrelevant. The fact that you added non-UTF-8 characters without declaring the encoding used, broke server.xml. In fact, it isn't even an XML file anymore, after that change. Again: this is a matter of how XML and XML-parsers work, not a matter of a choice made by Tomcat.

I do get a senseful error message right on the console if I start Tomcat by catalina.bat run Chances are, you'll also find a message if you look into Tomcat's logs. -- 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]
