Can you post all active <Connector> elements from your conf/server.xml file? Your <transport-guarantee> looks good, although you mentioned that it was your conf/web.xml, which is all wrong. The web.xml file should be in your webapp's deployment directory under WEB-INF/web.xml. Tomcat loads conf/web.xml as defaults for all webapps. It's best to put webapp-specific configuration in the WEB-INF/web.xml for the specific web application. That way, if you deploy it on another container, the configuration goes with the webapp instead of staying behind in some container-specific location. Too bad about not being able to upgrade from TC 4. We were terrified of upgrading for years, and then just decided to get the process rolling. We were able to upgrade from 4.1 -> 5.5 and then to 6.0 with little to no headaches at all. The webapp required no changes: only a slightly different configuration for the container itself (for instance, logging, JNDI DataSources, etc.). Your vendor needs to get with the program and start supporting a version of Tomcat that was written in the last 5 years. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkw97z4ACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PDhHgCdFBU9qqtax+WBQNd4GHZGb82m IAEAn1RhfbZfn1G3xHpHEMOfEDnCGErL =1tbU -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
