All,
A few XML issues. Firstly, I wrongly put this in server.xml:
<Valve classname="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve"
allow="<ip address>, <ip address>" />
Instead of seeing a SAX parse exception or similar, this appeared in
catalina.out:
ERROR reading /usr/local/tomcat/conf/server.xml
At Line 29 /Server/Service/Engine/Host/Context/Valve/
classname=org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve allow=161.112.*,
194.164.*

Is this behaviour correct? It's very misleading - took me a while to work
out what was wrong!
Secondly, I changed the parser in common/lib to Xerces 2 - the two jar
files. I expected TomCat to break, but it worked fine. However, the new
parser reported that an XML document wasn't well-formed. I didn't think
upgrading a parser would change the "status" of an XML document from "OK" to
"not OK"! What gives? Is the latest version of Xerces more strict?
Solaris 8
Tomcat 4.0.1
Apache 1.3
mod_webapp 1
Thanks,
John
