This is related, but not the same. #418826 caused the applet to create the config-file once in /root, once in /etc/, ... wherever I was when I started tomcat the last time. When tomcat is started on startup with the original script, the applet tries to write into /var/lib/tomcat5.5. So we tried to find a way with the same behaviour when I start tomcat manually. And our solution was to enter the "cd"-command. Armin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
