The Tomcat directory isn't the only place .so files could be located. Anywhere in the java.library.path is possible. If you have an AprLifecycleListener configured in your server.xml, then you are attempting to use APR.

The "swapping-responses" problem or everything else you've outlined about your inadequate configuration? - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkmcV0AACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PBw4wCgtvTgf5Jy6z30u9Z3z/8M9ViN stwAn1urDcjts1xtPvSMiSuL00jEMYPV =/Ge+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
