No. The reason was Tomcat 5 was pretty new at the time of the 2.0 release and people were asking to have the "reliable" 4 version as well. I can see no more reasons to stick to 4 anymore. Except: We already had the 2.1 with the Tomcat 4 distribution. However, if anyone has to fo with Tomcat 4 he/she can still patch it with the ant tasks.

I don't use the tomcat bundles but to me it makes perfect sense to have only one out-of-the box distribution. What was the reason for having both in the first place? Was it this JAASRealm issue? In that case even more reason to drop tomcat 4 bundle.

Isn't it about time do drop the Tomcat 4 bundle as a distribution along with that?

I mentioned before that in Tomcat 5 there was the old silly classloader problem with the JAASRealm we had with the ordinary SlideRealm before. So I decided to stick to the SlideRealm. I have, however, found out what the problem was

http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29406

and it obviously has been fixed in 5.0.28. You just have to change the configuration in server.xml and add something like

useContextClassLoader="false"

to your JAAS ream defintion and things work from a single war.

What about changing the default Tomcat bundle to this setting? Maybe even for the 2.1 release?



I'd say go for it :-)
