friendly warning (with a small ulterior motive) - there are some not entirely dissimilar problems with jsp files in 4.1. it turns out that if you remove a jsp, then someone hits its url triggering a 404, then you replace the jsp, the 404 is permanently cached inside tomcat and you are forced to restart the webapp or tomcat to cause tomcat to recognize the new jsp page. vote for this bug if this behavior bothers you: http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16113 - donald --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
