Greetings,
I have scoured the web/mailing lists all day and have had no luck with
this.
I have a singular servlet in a test context that runs fine until I put
in an HTTPServlet.log(java.lang.String) statement in the servlet's
init() method. I just want to log a string when the servlet init()'s.
Following is the error message from Tomcat and the configuration of the
context.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
Sincerely,
Thomas B. Holdren, Developer
