Hi, An error in web.xml only stops startup for that webapp, not all webapps. I just retested that on 5.0.27 to confirm.
If you posted the entire error message, than that's weird. But then again, I haven't played with 4.1.24 in a while so maybe what we said wasn't applicable to your Tomcat release. The web.xml external validation is of course applicable and easy.
