Thanks, Thomas. I tried putting the following in conf/context.xml
<JarScanner scanClassPath="false"> <JarScanFilter tldSkip="*.*"/> </JarScanner> That worked. However, that seems to match the Tomcat 8 docs and not the Tomcat 9 docs. I will try figuring out the Tomcat 9 configuration as soon as I get a chance. If you know the Tomcat 9 equivalent, that would be really helpful. Thanks!
