... But you can put it back by modifying catalina.{bat,sh} depending on platform, which will be more robust than relying on a classloader. If you have a constraint that you're *also* not allowed to touch the Tomcat startup files, then I would feed back that the combination of these constraints will make any eventual solution *less* robust rather than the intention behind the constraints of making more robust systems. - Peter --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
