And even if it's true that bugs always tends to rise in all software, you should think that sometimes is better fighting against well-known bugs than against new bugs; for example, in critical-mission systems never are used newer versions of soft or hard, because you don't really know what kind of bugs you will find. In fact, upgrading depends on the scenario, the mission of system, the users, the money you have and also the compatibility with older versions! Saying that you should always upgrade your systems is a too-simplistic assortment (I hope this word is right!). Javier Polo.
Re: Why tomcat 4 or even 3?
What is more, a lot of app's for big companies are just forgotten or have a few users, so why spend time upgrading to a newer version of tomcat?

Tomcat 5.28 autodeploy
Hi! I have a problem using tomcat 5.28. When i create a war file and I put it in my webapps directory, if tomcat is running it's autodeployed without problem. But, if tomcat is stopped and i start it later, tomcat doesn't deploy the file. I have autodeploy and deploy on start up flags enabled. Is there any problem in Tomcat? Thanks in advance.
Tomcat 5 & Crystal Reports
Hi! I'm triying to configure Tomcat 5 and Crystal Reports. What I want to do is reading from a database to a report made with CR using a Tomcat datasource. The problem is that CR can't find it (using jndi); i get a message saying that CR is unable to find the resource. The datasource is well defined (i think so because a jsp can use it correctly). Does anybody know if is there problem between Tomcat 5 and Crystal Reports? Is there any one that have configured it yet? Thanks in advance, Javier Polo.

Juli 2004 10:26 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Tomcat 5.X & SSL config Hi! I have a problem when triying to configure Tomcat 5.X (under windows XP) to handle SSL and digital certificate. I have a server certificate (it's valid), so I just import it to my keystore and follow the instructions to modify the file server.xml (just change the keystoreFile, keystorePass and clientAuth). The problem is that, when I access to http://localhost:8443, the box where I can choose my client certificate pops up empty (I have a valid client certificate in my browser) so I can't choose my client browser. First, I though it was a browser's config problem but using mozilla happends the same thing. The most curious thing is that, with the same keystore and using other app-server (Oracle's OC4J) it works fine (I can choose my client certificate), so I think it's a Tomcat problem, but I don't know what!
