Chuck, Thanks again,
The contents of admin.xml are as follows: <!-- Context configuration file for the Tomcat Administration Web App $Id: admin.xml 303123 2004-08-26 17:03:35Z remm $ --> <Context docBase="${catalina.home}/server/webapps/admin" privileged="true" antiResourceLocking="false" antiJARLocking="false"> <!-- Uncomment this Valve to limit access to the Admin app to localhost for obvious security reasons. Allow may be a comma-separated list of hosts (or even regular expressions).--> <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve" allow="127.0.0.1"/> </Context> I don't think it is a files permission issue. I have given tomcat user the role of admin as well. I am still confounded with where the error page is being served from. I really appreciate your help.
