OK, so in /usr/share/java/tomcat8 of the existing installation, I issue the following command: java -cp catalina.jar org.apache.catalina.util.ServerInfo and get the following output: Server version: Apache Tomcat/8.0.39 Server built: Dec 19 2016 19:32:05 UTC Server number: 8.0.39.0 OS Name: Linux OS Version: 4.4.44-39.55.amzn1.x86_64 Architecture: amd64 JVM Version: 1.8.0_121-b13 JVM Vendor: Oracle Corporation This is the content of context.xml (with the initial licensing comment shortened for brevity): <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> <!-- Licensed to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) under one or more ... --> <!-- The contents of this file will be loaded for each web application --> <Context> <!-- Default set of monitored resources.

If the default is true, then the jar scan in 8.0.39 should result in the same exceptions as in 8.0.41. But it does not -- the application starts and works perfectly fine. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
