Hi chaps, thanks very much for the security info, worked a treat, or at least, now Wookie at least attempts a start in Tomcat, however, it then carks it. I monitored the Catalina log, and an error is generated in the browser when I click on the Wookie link in the Manager: catalina log: Mar 11, 2010 10:03:35 AM org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader validateJarFile INFO: validateJarFile(/var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/wookie/WEB-INF/lib/servlet-api-2.5.jar) - jar not loaded. See Servlet Spec 2.3, section 9.7.2. Offending class: javax/servlet/Servlet.class Mar 11, 2010 10:03:39 AM org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol start Error produced by wookie: javax.servlet.ServletException: java.lang.LinkageError: loader constraint violation: when resolving interface method "javax.servlet.jsp.JspApplicationContext.getExpressionFactory()Ljavax/el/ExpressionFactory;" the class loader (instance of org/apache/jasper/servlet/JasperLoader) of the current class, org/apache/jsp/webmenu/index_jsp, and the class loader (instance of org/apache/catalina/loader/StandardClassLoader) for resolved class, javax/servlet/jsp/JspApplicationContext, have different Class objects for the type javax/el/ExpressionFactory used in the signature org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.service(JspServlet.java:275) any ideas? many thanks Steve Nisbet Learning Resource Manager Learning & Research Technologies LRIS Manchester Metropolitan University Before acting on this email or opening any attachments you should read the Manchester Metropolitan University's email disclaimer available on its website http://www.mmu.ac.uk/emaildisclaimer
