I know that if you save out your changes in the admin application, it will write out server.xml and even add in things that weren't there previously (context definitions for items auto-deployed from the webapps directory, defaults settings I think, etc). I don't know if that is the culprit, because I'm not sure if it makes a backup copy like that. I know that when it does this, the line wrap is destroyed.
Do you have any 3rd party applications that would be messing with this file?

It looks like my original server.xml file was mysteriously moved to server.xml.yyyy-mm-dd.hh-min-sec and was replaced with a new server.xml file, which although it kept the configuration for all the original contexts, it looked unrecognizable. It seems completely generated because all of the comments are gone, including the ones which come with the default server.xml. Also, it is totally unreadable due to the line wrap. This is the first time I've encountered something like this, and have never been aware of anything that could trigger generation of a new server.xml. On the day when this occurred, the was nothing unusual done to the server configuration on my part. The server was brought down on multiple occasions to pick up new contexts, that's all. So, would anybody have any explanation for this? thanks, Ellen --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
