The error information on context.xml parsing is very sparse to say the 
least...

As I have 3 different hosts defined, I am not sure which one it refers to. 
It seems though that all three fail with this message. Even so the third 
seems to be working fine, while the other two are not.

This is the content of one of them
<context
   path="" docBase="ROOT" reloadable="true">
<!--   reloadable="true"  autoDeploy="true" deployOnStartup="true" -->
   <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve"
                  directory="logs"  prefix="blingon_test_log." suffix=".txt"
                  pattern="common" resolveHosts="false"/>

Any ideas as to what makes HostConfig fail ? I assume it is a parsing error, 
but since there is no logging statement in line 566, I don't know which.
