I would forget about moving from 4.1.18 -> 4.1.39 and go directly to 6.0.18 (there is no production 6.1 version of TC yet). My best advice is to start with a stock server.xml from your new version and merge-in configuration changes manually. Remember a few things: 1. <Context> elements now belong in your webapp's META-INF/context.xml 2. JNDI resources that don't need to be shared among webapps should be defined within your <Context> instead of in server.xml 3. There is no such thing as <Logger> anymore in server.xml See the following references for more information: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/config/context.html http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/jndi-datasource-examples-howto.html http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/logging.html Any complaints about TC's logging system should be directed to André Warnier. He's our resident logging-system complaint file clerk. ;) - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkn/VaYACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PDuqACfbky4ha359snhgR2yBaZgJfqv QKkAnjpeFCNaLs6RypkofO+jF43VI3fe =ozeK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
