When you run "catalina.bat run", all the stdout output should go into the CMD.EXE window where you ran it. >> After I run both "startup.bat" or "catalina run", the procurement_log.txt >> showed the exception: (in the server.xml, myApp = procurement, I used myApp >> to represent the real project name, hope it won't confuse you.) > >> 2009-09-02 00:25:51 StandardContext[/procurement]: Starting >> 2009-09-02 00:25:51 StandardContext[/procurement]: Processing start(), >> current available=false >> 2009-09-02 00:25:51 StandardContext[/procurement]: Configuring default >> Resources >> 2009-09-02 00:25:51 StandardContext[/procurement]: Resources start failed: >> java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Document base ..\webapps\procurement >> does not exist or is not a readable directory This sounds like a good place to start. What is your "appBase" for your <Host> in server.xml? Please re-post the <Context> definition that does work, and the one that does not work (no need to re-post the <Resource> within the <Context>). >> I am rechecking and rechecking [the JNDI configuration].

Forget about the database driver: I think that was a distraction from the real error (shown above). >> Yes, IBM driver really starts with COM all in caps. Ok. >> I just so confused why I set >> docBase as local, Tomcat is working? Can you explain further what you mean when you say "set docBase as local" versus whatever else you set it to?

As Chuck says, Tomcat 5.5 can run on JDK 1.4 if you install the compatibility package (which is easy). >> I am more than happy >> to switch to higher version of Tomcat.

If this is a legacy application, how much "development" is really occurring? 2. Why not run the same environment in both dev and prod? 3. Why can't you run under JDK 1.5 or 1.6? Why not Tomcat 6.0? - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkqdYiUACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PB1WwCgmTE94U3JOZD8Jfw+LyyMW63y oegAn0ZOtl7SS5nqiVgb7QcfBeq2NyLp =zG88 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
