Thanks Marvin for the pointers. The keyword was cas log files. I didn't see any cas.log. I only checked logs under tomcat's home folder's /log folder, and the cas.log was not there. It was under /bin, because from that folder, I ran my tomcat. So I panicked. Now I "found" it, it was very clear what was wrong: //----------------------------- Cannot create inner bean 'org.jasig.cas.adaptors.jdbc.SearchModeSearchDatabaseAuthenticationHandler#6ac67a88' of type [org.jasig.cas.adaptors.jdbc.SearchModeSearchDatabaseAuthenticationHandler] while setting bean property 'authenticationHandlers' with key [1]; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.CannotLoadBeanClassException: Cannot find class [org.jasig.cas.adaptors.jdbc.SearchModeSearchDatabaseAuthenticationHandler] for bean with name 'org.jasig.cas.adaptors.jdbc.SearchModeSearchDatabaseAuthenticationHandler#6ac67a88' defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/deployerConfigContext.xml]; nested exception is java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.jasig.cas.adaptors.jdbc.SearchModeSearchDatabaseAuthenticationHandler //---- No I did not have my "SearchModeSearch...." class. Or I did not put it in proper place. Now, In the following page, Stephen More and Mark Rogers use that bean, and I used the construct without thinking about the jar files. Now I need to figure out which jar file has that class. I can unzip every jar thar comes with the cas and look into it, but there should be a smart way to find out. Cheers, and thanks again for the pointers.

Best practice is to put on container classpath, for example tomcat/lib directory.
