I actually forgot to reopen the bug :-(

The proposed solution is to do nothing. However, if the realm doesn't start 
correctly the Tomcat server is unusable - it accepts incoming connections and 
never sends any response. Give it a try and you'll see how annoying it is!.

I think that, if JDBCRealm is so critical component (what about the deployed 
applications that don't use any security ???), Tomcat should print the error 
message and EXIT. 

However, it seems to me that it should be possible to start Tomcat without 
JDBCRealm running properly (if db connection cannot be established) - when a 
security check is necessary then retry the connection - it may be back :-).

Cheers,
Slawek Zachcial
