Hi, Before I even start dissecting this, where did you get the documentation that led you down this path? I don't see any mention of HTTPSValve on the Tomcat (or FWIW, the entire apache.org) site.
A general Google search shows only one place with this mention: the Globus site. I see that you're using their connector, so I assume they must be supplying the valve as well. If that's the case, why are you asking here and not bugging them instead? ;) >I started to get ClassNotFoundException about classes in the catalina.jar. >So >I modified the CLASSPATH in the bin/catalina.sh file as follows: That CLASSPATH is not very relevant. Please consult the Tomcat Classloader How-To document (http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/class-loader-howto.html ) to see what classloading repositories are applicable to you. You would probably need to place the Globus jars in common/lib, and NOT modify the bootstrap classpath. >[main] ERROR startup.HostConfig - Error deploying configuration descriptor >admin.xml >java.io.IOException: java.lang.NullPointerException Did you modify admin.xml or the server/webapps/admin directory? >Any ideas greatly apprecipated. Go yell at someone at Globus, it's their fault.
