Bug ID: 60557 Summary: Tomcat does not resolve symlinks for conf/server.xml Product: Tomcat 8 Version: 8.5.x-trunk Hardware: PC OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Catalina Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org Reporter: a...@boxfuse.com Target Milestone: ---- Tomcat fails to start when server.xml is a symlink (resolving to a valid file) instead of an actual file. This is the message: WARNING: Unable to load server configuration from [/tomcat/conf/server.xml] SEVERE: Cannot start server. Server instance is not configured. Copying the file to the symlink location fixes the issue, but in the Linux world that really shouldn't have to be the case. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
