My guess is that jsvc is failing. Is there an error in your output file or error file? (ie. ../logs/catalina.out & ../logs/catalina.err).
As for why it was failing, I found it was so unreliable on my system that I eventually ditched it (but then I don't need port 80). All in all, it's easier to run Apache http server and bridge to Tomcat than to try to get Tomcat running using jsvc, imo. ..Bob. --- Eric Noel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 5/28/2004 12:02 PM, Justin Jaynes wrote: > > > I am very impressed with the responsiveness of this > > list.
