are you sure this has to do with your ROOT context? This looks like an error with your JDBC driver. It tries to load a class that isn't defined.
why don't you post your server.xml Filip -----Original Message----- From: Raible, Matt [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 31, 2003 3:43 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [BUG?] Can't set my app as root app without errors I can't seem to set my application (cct) as the root application for Tomcat. If I use <Context path="" ...>, my app appears to load fine, but then Tomcat seems to attempt to load it a second time, and I get the following error: WARN [main] JDBCExceptionReporter.logExceptions(35) | SQL Error: 0, SQLState: null ERROR [main] JDBCExceptionReporter.logExceptions(42) | Cannot load JDBC driver class 'null' WARN [main] SessionFactoryImpl.<init>(163) | Could not obtain connection metadata java.sql.SQLException: Cannot load JDBC driver class 'null' >From this, I assumed that Tomcat was trying to load my app both at the root context path ("") and a context path that's the same as the directory ("/cct"). So I created a second xml file in webapps, and named it cct2.xml and changed the path to "/cct". I don't get the error above, but the app does indeed load twice. I was hoping I could turn off this load-the-second-one behavior by changing unpackWARs and/or autoDeploy to false on my <Host> element, but no such luck. Is there a way to fix this? I can successfully use the app at http://localhost/, but I'd rather not see these errors, and I'd rather not see it load twice. I'm using Tomcat 4.1.18, JDK 1.4.1_01 on Win2K and RedHat 8.0. I can enter a bug in bugzilla if this is indeed a bug.
