Sorry, Jake. But I think you've missed the server name in my first email. It's Apache Tomcat.
*** Tomcat version: apache-tomcat-5.5.27 *** Thanks for your help.

This should be part of your server documentation, but if it's Weblogic I might be able to tell you. But that also depends on the server version.
