That's not good. I'll go take a look. I also built Tomcat 4.1.31, but I found that the > TOMCAT_4_1_31 tagged version of the connectors didn't work, though I > found that the 4_1_25 did. Go figure. This has certainly worked for me in the past. > 2. I had to download jakarta-tomcat-jasper, which the BUILD.txt doesn't > say anything about. The 4.1.32 source release will fix this.

Sounds like dodgy default values in the build script. There have been issues in the past that I believe I have fixed for 4.1.32. Basically, with the 4.1.32 source distro, assuming you have all the libs, a simple ant build from the root of the source directory should be all the is required. > 4.

Later versions simply wouldn't work. That is really odd. What were the errors? SVN trunk builds quite happily with all the latest versions. The struts upgrade was a PITA but the rest were pretty painless. > 5.

I am so inclined - working on it now. Having all the source in a single zip (with the right structure) should make things easier. Thanks for the info.
