Hmmm. I'm thinking I'm beginning to get a whiff of the issue. Before, we would run multiple webapps and each had their own context file that matched the webapps. Like for the one below, we had one called mo.xml. We'd put all these in the CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost and it all worked great.
With 6, I've dropped mo.xml into the conf directory directly since that seemed to be what the docs recommended. Now, I'm thinking, I need to integrate all this into context.xml. Is this what you're suggesting? BTW, I made sure the JDBC jar files are all in CATALINA_HOME/lib.

My webapp was deployed as a war file with the config.xml in the META-INF (the exact config for 5.5). The deployment does the correct thing with the config.xml. Make sure your jdbc library is in the CATALINA_HOME/lib dir. I also was playing around with using realms for the manager and found I had to put the manager's config.xml in the META-INF dir for things to work. I tried moving the config.xml to conf/Catalina/localhost and ... ... the manager was undeployed. mas Hehl, Thomas wrote: > I am testing our webapp under tomcat 6 after being under tomcat 5.5. > > > > I have moved the following file from 5.5. into 6.
