Searching various archives, I found two similar issues from earlier this year that were unanswered:
http://www.mail-archive.com/tomcat-user@jakarta.apache.org/msg131837.html http://www.junlu.com/msg/44667.html Basically, there is an exception at startup when using a custom realm implementation (in my case I am using Security Filter: http://securityfilter.sourceforge.net) Here is the exception: 03:42:59,976 INFO [RealmBase] Parent not available yet: null:type=Engine 03:42:59,983 ERROR [RealmBase] Can't register null java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.catalina.realm.RealmBase.init(RealmBase.java:1194) at org.apache.catalina.realm.RealmBase.start(RealmBase.java:875) at org.apache.catalina.realm.JDBCRealm.start(JDBCRealm.java:669) Thx.
