           Summary: Startup Listener error message unhelpful
           Product: Tomcat 6
           Version: 6.0.16
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Jasper
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


I get the following error on startup:

java.lang.IllegalAccessException:
 Class org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext
 can not access a member of class
 com.mycom.Myclass
 with modifiers "private"

This occurs when the listener class does not have a public zero argument
constructor.  Could we improve the error message to make it a little easier
to understand?

It's too bad that the sun docs don't even mention the requirement:

http://java.sun.com/javaee/5/docs/api/index.html?javax/servlet/http/HttpSessionListener.html

>>>

 web.xml:

 <listener>
   <listener-class>com.mycom.Myclass</listener-class>
 </listener>

 where Myclass is located inside my war in WEB-INF/class/com/mycom
