Quite possible. Could be DNS resolution, or references in .xml files to external DTDs, among others. You might want to run Wireshark while Tomcat is starting and just see what requests are being made. Also, try taking a thread dump or three during the delay and see what's going on inside Tomcat. > There is no context file in conf or conf/Catalina/localhost. So you removed the standard conf/context.xml file that's distributed with Tomcat? Are there any remote (CIFS/SMB) file references involved? - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
