When starting the server, it does not start /admin application. The log shows the following error: 2003-12-04 10:01:16 ContextConfig[/admin] Exception processing JAR at resource path /WEB-INF/lib/struts.jar javax.servlet.ServletException: Exception processing JAR at resource path /WEB- INF/lib/struts.jar at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.tldScanJar (ContextConfig.java:930) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.tldScan (ContextConfig.java:868) ....... ..... .... .. . This occurres with majority (but not all) of the *.jar files included in a WEB- INF/lib directory. I have problems running AXIS1.1, some of custom made taglibs. I have two XP machines and no matter I try it produces the same result. Identical installattion (Tomcat version and Sun j2sdk 1.4.2._01) on Win 2000 Pro and Linux Mandarake 9 works like a charm. I have tried to unpack the jar files and include the *.class files (and the directory structure) into WEB-INF/classes directory and it appears to be working all right (kind of slower than usual), but this is not the way it was intended to be. I have tried Tomcat version 4.1.12 and it produces the same result like 4.1.29 Tomcat 5.0.16 works well, so I strongly believe this is not a Java problem. I run Tomcat in stand alone mode.
Most likely cause is that the $CATALINA_BASE/temp directory does not exist or is not available. As a result of a recently fixed bug (18650), a much better error message is displayed if this is the case.
Created attachment 13461 [details] This is the jar file which we are not able to load.
Comment on attachment 13461 [details] This is the jar file which we are not able to load. Guys we are facing the same problem with jar files & unable to run webapps. Here is what we are using Tomcat 4.1.29 woth JDK 1.4.2_03. If we add this file into folder common/lib it loads, but then cries for other jar file.Note that we do not get the error for all the jar files but selected one. Attached is a jar file which fails to open with the error in log: 2004-11-15 16:42:48 ContextConfig[/] Exception processing JAR at resource path /WEB-INF/lib/saxpath.jar javax.servlet.ServletException: Exception processing JAR at resource path /WEB-INF/lib/saxpath.jar at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.tldScanJar(ContextConfig.java:930) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.tldScan(ContextConfig.java:868) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.start(ContextConfig.java:647) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.lifecycleEvent(ContextConfig.java:243 ) at org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleSupport.fireLifecycleEvent(LifecycleSupport.j ava:166) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.start(StandardContext.java:3582) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.start(ContainerBase.java:1188) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHost.start(StandardHost.java:754) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.start(ContainerBase.java:1188) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardEngine.start(StandardEngine.java:363) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardService.start(StandardService.java:497) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardServer.start(StandardServer.java:2190) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.start(Catalina.java:512) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.execute(Catalina.java:400) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.process(Catalina.java:180) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.ja va:25) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:324) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.main(Bootstrap.java:203) ----- Root Cause ----- java.util.zip.ZipException: Access is denied at java.util.zip.ZipFile.open(Native Method) at java.util.zip.ZipFile.<init>(ZipFile.java:112) at java.util.jar.JarFile.<init>(JarFile.java:127) at sun.net.www.protocol.jar.URLJarFile.<init>(URLJarFile.java:51) at sun.net.www.protocol.jar.URLJarFile$1.run(URLJarFile.java:178) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at sun.net.www.protocol.jar.URLJarFile.retrieve(URLJarFile.java:164) at sun.net.www.protocol.jar.URLJarFile.getJarFile(URLJarFile.java:42) at sun.net.www.protocol.jar.JarFileFactory.get(JarFileFactory.java:78) at sun.net.www.protocol.jar.JarURLConnection.connect(JarURLConnection.java:85) at sun.net.www.protocol.jar.JarURLConnection.getJarFile(JarURLConnection.java:69) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.tldScanJar(ContextConfig.java:906) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.tldScan(ContextConfig.java:868) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.start(ContextConfig.java:647) at org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.lifecycleEvent(ContextConfig.java:243 ) at org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleSupport.fireLifecycleEvent(LifecycleSupport.j ava:166) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext.start(StandardContext.java:3582) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.start(ContainerBase.java:1188) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardHost.start(StandardHost.java:754) at org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.start(ContainerBase.java:1188) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardEngine.start(StandardEngine.java:363) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardService.start(StandardService.java:497) at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardServer.start(StandardServer.java:2190) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.start(Catalina.java:512) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.execute(Catalina.java:400) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.process(Catalina.java:180) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.ja va:25) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:324) at org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap.main(Bootstrap.java:203)

The admin app works for me on a clean install of 4.1.31. This is a configuration error. Bugzilla is not the right forum for these issues. Please follow this up on the tomcat-user mailing list.
This bug still exists: I have identified the cuase also: If the directory WEB-INF is capitalized, the problem will occur. Changing it to web-inf will fix the problem so one can use web-inf as a work around till this bug is fixed. Zhi An
The /admin application works for me on a clean install. The WEB-INF directory is in upper case so by default I don't think this is relevant for the original report. You may have identified a different bug. In this case what is needed is a new bug report, ideally with a test case.
