David, I just migrated a Turbine app from tomcat 4.0.3 to 4.1.12. Had a similar 404 problem. My logs showed classes loading but the Turbine servlet was nto executing. If I'd read the 4.1.12 Realease notes regarding security, it's have save some headaches and time.
Basically, version 4.1.12 of Tomcat does not activate its servlet and CGI handlers by default. You must enable them !!! See RELEASE-NOTES-4.1.txt, particularly: ---------------------------- Enabling SSI and CGI Support: ---------------------------- Having CGI and SSI available to web applications created security problems when using a security manager (as a malicious web application could use them to sidestep the security manager access control). In Tomcat 4.1, they have been disabled by default, as our goal is to provide a fully secure default configuration. However, CGI and SSI remain available. On Unix (LINUX): * rename the file $CATALINA_HOME/server/lib/servlets-cgi.renametojar to $CATALINA_HOME/server/lib/servlets-cgi.jar. * rename the file $CATALINA_HOME/server/lib/servlets-ssi.renametojar to $CATALINA_HOME/server/lib/servlets-ssi.jar. * in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/web.xml, uncomment the servlet declarations starting line 165 and 213, as well as the associated servlet mappings line 265 and 274. Alternately, these servlet declarations and mappings can be added to your web application deployment descriptor. 1: services.VelocityService.file.resource.loader.path = /templates/app,/templates/flux --- David Wynter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > To overcome a IllegalStateException when using > Apache 1.3.23 and Tomcat > 4.0.4 I was advised to upgrade to the latest Apache > and Tomcat.
