Re: [basex-talk] Incompatibility with Tomcat 10
Hi Christian, Many thanks. I hadn't tried that, but I'll definitely give it a go. It does sound like it will be a simple fix. RegardsMarc M.

Maybe you can resolve the issue by following the instructions given on the homepage of Tomcat; did you try that? “Applications that run on Tomcat 9 and earlier will not run on Tomcat 10 without changes.

Re: [basex-talk] Incompatibility with Tomcat 10
Hi Marc, Thanks for testing and the StackOverflow links. I think you’ve already discovered the weak spot, which is also documented in the Tomcat Migration Guide [1]: The javax.servlet packages are not available in Tomcat 10 anymore, so the import statements of BaseX would need to be updated. As BaseX comes with Jetty as standard web server, which relies on the javax.servlet package, the Open-Source version of BaseX will remain unchanged; but we can offer a custom Tomcat 10 version of BaseX for those who are using BaseX commercially. We’ll do some tests soon to confirm the assumption and update the documentation [2].

Re: [basex-talk] Incompatibility with Tomcat 10
Hi Christian, I was using BaseX 9.5 on Tomcat 8.5 and it was fine. On Tomcat 10.0.2 I couldn't get either BaseX 9.5 or 9.7 to work (same issue). I now have Tomcat 9.0.62 running and I've successfully run both BaseX 9.5 and 9.7.
