Assignee: Chris Holmes

Created: Wed, 14 Apr 2004 11:43 AM
Updated: Wed, 14 Apr 2004 11:43 AM
Environment: Win2K, IIS, Tomcat 4.1.24, Java SDK 1.4.2
Win2K, IIS, Tomcat 4.1.24, Java SDK 1.4.2 OR
Win2K, Apache2, Tomcat 4.1.24, Java SDK 1.4.2

Description:
I can install geoserver OK, but as soon as I change *anything* in the configuration (using the web admin pages), when I restart Tomcat the next time the “action” servlet is disabled. I can only “fix” this by removing geoserver and starting all over. My Tomcat log records the text included below (I’ve left out a lot, just copied where the error occurs).
