I take help! :) (I am just frustrated and the post was intended to be
positive criticism.)
My app works just fine (minus the mail function) IF I do not add my
<Context> info to server.xml. My context data is larger (includes Valve,
Logger, Resource, ResourceParms, and Environment items) but I have trimmed
it down to the following that is inserted in the 4.1.18 distribution after
the examples context and before </Host>. And it is strange, if I run the
app then add the server.xml entry without clearing the work subdirectory and
without redeploying, the error does not occur. This was a very confusing
issue, it seemed to work sometimes and sometimes not. But if I add my
<Context> tag to the server.xml, then deploy am WAR file, the error occurs.
It is the following trimmed <Context> that caused the error.
<Context path="/mfnettags"
docBase="mfnettags"
reloadable="false"
debug="5"
swallowOutput="false"
useNaming="true"
>
</Context>
Thanks!

Is this a request for help, or just a rant? Please let us know.
