We've recently been writing the 'next version' of our main application, and the decision was made to target TC 5.0.x, up from 4.1.x. We experience no major difficulties in making that move, thouogh there can be a few gotchas. The one thing we noticed that changed (for the better) was error page handling.
Others have reported small problems regarding TC 5's more strict interpretation of the spec in certain areas. As an example of this (though this is from memory!) I think someone had something like: <jsp:include page="foo"> </jsp:include> And that appealed to their sense of 'good coding' (like putting opening and closing braces on all blocks, including one line blocks). This worked in Tomcat 4.x, but not in 5.x So small things like that might catch you up, but otherwise nothing major. > -----Original Message----- > From: Bjørn T Johansen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, December 01, 2004 7:08 AM > To: Tomcat Users List > Subject: Moving from 4.1.27 to 5.0.28? > > > I am thinging of upgrading our prod Tomcat server from 4.1.27 > to 5.0.28 (or is 5.5.4 a > safer bet?) and I was wondering if there would be any > problems when upgrading?
