Hi
I am running tomcat 3.2b6 inside apache 1.3.14 using mod_jk. I'm running
Solaris on a sparc. All seems to work well, except for the admin app.
I am able to see the "Context Administration" page containing the form, but
when I click on the "View All Contexts" button, I get the error listed
below.
Note that I added a user with roles="admin" to
$TOMCAT_HOME/conf/tomcat-users.xml in order to get past the BASIC
authentication mentioned in web.xml for this app.
Before the exception appears, I notice that tomcat writes the following to
the console:
2000-11-28 11:49:23 - Ctx( /admin ): Illegal access to internal attribute
Then the very next output is the exception:
2000-11-28 11:49:23 - Ctx( /admin ): Exception in: R( /admin +
/contextAdmin/contextAdmin.jsp + null) - javax.servlet.ServletException
