It is a bad idea to have the configuration files world-readable. Especially tomcat-uses.xml and server.xml. > java.io.IOException: IOException writing to > /usr/share/tomcat5/conf/tomcat-users.xml.new What you do not understand in the above message? Tomcat saves the file to a new name, then renames it. BTW, it is possible to set readonly="true" on the UserDatabase entry in server.xml and Tomcat won't try to write that file. (In Tomcat 6+ readonly flag is "true" by default). > cat /etc/tomcat5/tomcat-users.xml This file is not in "/usr/share/tomcat5/conf/" Best regards, Konstantin Kolinko --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
