Having browsed the Tocmat website and seen the differences between the different versions I have noticed what's missing.
I have a link on my site for upgrading from 4.1.x -> 5.0.x. http://www.brandxdev.net/misc/tomcat_upgrade.site The 5.0.x -> 5.5.x guide is on the way. : I think there should be some development effort put into scripts for upgrading from the previous version of Tomcat. Have at it! Where I'm from, such a statement is considered a statement that you volunteer your time to do this. ;) In all seriousness, how could there be such a tool? Most of what Tomcat does and provides is detailed in the servlet/JSP specs: it must handle WAR files, it must service JSPs, and so on. In turn, most of the upgrade process involves you, the developer, testing and adjusting your app to fit the new specs. Looking at the upgrade guide I've assembled, there were only a couple of changes to Tomcat config files. -QM -- software -- http://www.brandxdev.net tech news -- http://www.RoarNetworX.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
