Tomcat version? JVM version? Also, are you using a packaged Tomcat (from RH) or are you using a real one from tomcat.apache.org?

It looks like a configuration issue, not a code issue. Note that this "error" message: | Mar 12, 2008 6:58:01 AM | org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListenerlifecycleEvent | INFO: Failed shutdown of Apache Portable Runtime ... is no big deal: you probably don't have APR installed, so Tomcat can't shut it down. It looks like Tomcat is failing to shut down properly: | Mar 12, 2008 6:57:58 AM org.apache.catalina.mbeans.ServerLifecycleListenerproce | ssContainerRemoveChild | SEVERE: processContainerRemoveChild: Throwable | javax.management.MalformedObjectNameException: Invalid character ':' in | value part of property [snip] | at org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.stop(Catalina.java:602) | at org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina$CatalinaShutdownHook.run | (Catalina.java:645) Note the description of the exception that is being thrown, there: "Invalid character ':' in value part of property" I wonder if you have a broken server.xml or context.xml for your application. Have you customized Tomcat's server.xml file? If so, please post those customizations and we'll take a look. If you have a META-INF/context.xml file for your application, post that, too, and we'll see if we can find anything. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkfZJ58ACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PAUQgCfULfiBUNYh4O7AbH2MNhAxqIf Y4EAoLV2qZIs7U9AcK7icLixV2TuLUo/ =Y7wu -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
