Embedded Tomcat

[Klaus Sonnenleiter]

I've been using Tomcat for quite a while now and so far everything was working fine. That is, until I tried to embed Tomcat in one of my applications... Is there any documentation that could tell me how to do that? I followed the examples in the files EmbededTomcat (3.2.1) and Embedded (4.0b1), but in both cases I keep getting the same symptom: At run time, upon trying to add any context, I get an AccessControlException (see stacktrace below). Please note that I'm trying to access the same directories that work perfectly fine in a standalone Tomcat.   ContextManager: Adding context Ctx(  ) cannot process configuration web service using "/home/klaus/dev/java/jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1/webapps/ROOT" Security init for Context /home/klaus/dev/java/jakarta-tomcat-3.2.1/webapps/ROOT failed java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.lang.RuntimePermission createClassLoader )         at java.lang.Throwable.fillInStackTrace(Native Method)         at java.lang.Throwable.fillInStackTrace(Compiled Code)         at java.lang.Throwable.<init>(Compiled Code)         at java.lang.Exception.<init>(Compiled Code)         at java.lang.RuntimeException.<init>(RuntimeException.java:47)         at java.lang.SecurityException.<init>(SecurityException.java:39)         at java.security.AccessControlException.<init>(AccessControlException.java:57)         at java.security.AccessControlContext.checkPermission(Compiled Code)         at java.security.AccessController.checkPermission(Compiled Code)         at java.lang.SecurityManager.checkPermission(Compiled Code)         at java.lang.SecurityManager.checkCreateClassLoader(SecurityManager.java:611)         at java.lang.ClassLoader.<init>(ClassLoader.java:236)         at org.apache.tomcat.loader.AdaptiveClassLoader.<init>(AdaptiveClassLoader.java:213)         at org.apache.tomcat.loader.AdaptiveServletLoader.<init>(AdaptiveServletLoader.java:88)         at org.apache.tomcat.context.LoaderInterceptor.contextInit(Compiled Code)         at org.apache.tomcat.core.ContextManager.initContext(Compiled Code)         at org.apache.tomcat.startup.EmbededTomcat.initContext(Compiled Code)         at TestEmbed.main(TestEmbed.java:14)
