Yes, I've read through previous threads on this subject; I haven't found anything which helps me.
Recently I've had a spate of unexplained 'Marking servlet [] as unavailable' issues on my development server. It is a development server, and so, of course, all the servlets on it are pretty much in development; but the tomcat version is Debian's packaging of tomcat5, package version 5.0.30-12, and has been installed 'out of the box' with the only special configuration I've done to set JAVA_HOME=/opt/ibm-java2-i386-50 TOMCAT5_SECURITY=no in /etc/default/tomcat5. No change has been made to the install since 2006-05-15, and the 'Marking ... as unavailable' issue has only started recently. what I'm getting in the localhost log is just: 2007-03-24 14:36:51 StandardContext[/pres]Marking servlet news as unavailable What I'm getting in the catalina log is nothing relevant at all. My webapp starts: 24-Mar-2007 14:36:27 org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHostDeployer install INFO: Installing web application at context path /pres from URL file:/var/lib/tomcat5/webapps/pres Then my servlet starts to initialise itself: 24-Mar-2007 14:36:29 org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina start INFO: Server startup in 9479 ms Will parse category article from pathinfo Looking for class 'uk.co.weft.exceptionhandler.BugzillaExceptionHandler' Looking for class 'uk.co.weft.pres.server.PrimitiveGenerator' And then - nothing at all. Nothing whatever is printed to catalina.out. I should say this does not affect the majority of my servlets; the majority of the servlets in this webapp work perfectly. It's a minority of servlets that are affected, and I suspect that the problem may be dependency on Xerces; but without more diagnostics it's hard to be certain. What I need to know is how to configure Tomcat so that it will print an exception dump somewhere when it is marking things as unavailable.
