Thanks - it was the first - I just had the files in the WEB-INF directory - not in the lib
Is there some method for finding errors / logs? Right now, I'm trying to get an application running, and I'm just guessing. For example, my catalina.log file says INFO: The listener "org.alfresco.web.app.ContextListener" is already configured for this context. The duplicate definition has been ignored. Jul 24, 2008 3:46:11 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start SEVERE: Error listenerStart Jul 24, 2008 3:46:11 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start SEVERE: Context [/alfresco] startup failed due to previous errors Where can I go to find out what's causing this?
