You can easily test the WAR file with either $ jar tvf <jar-file> or $ unzip -tv <jar-file> InfoZip's UnZip says that "-t" does a "test", while the jar utility only says that it will list the table of contents. I would use unzip if you have it available. I suppose using jar to unzip your jar file (instead of merely listing the TOC) would be a good test. Ideally, the WAR expansion is non-destructive (I hope so!), so after a crash like this you should be able to check the WAR file for integrity. Who knows... you might have some bad space on your disk. That might explain the intermittent nature of your problem. If you have physical access to your machine you could run badblocks (for a Linux machine... dunno if something similar is available for Sun) or even memtest86 (x86 hardware only, of course) to check to see if you have any hardware issues. It's possible that unzipping your WAR file sometimes exposes a problem with your memory<->cpu communication. Usually other weird things happen when you have such a problem. Since nobody can figure out your problem, I figured I'd mention that it could be a hardware problem. It's odd, though, that you would experience the same problem on multiple machines in a short period of time. <shrug> - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGRHCv9CaO5/Lv0PARAm+eAKCBf0FBVdul8KcBB522j9uJzmgtTwCfRAsg A2NyvBd2lfsR/Vp9aAi6b2o= =y0mO -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
