Hi guys,

I am having a problem with Tomcat on SuSE 10.0 namely it will not start:

I have not made any changes to that file and the permissions on the
file which the error is complaining about are set to:

ls -l /srv/www/tomcat5/base/conf/
total 96
drwxr-xr-x  3 root   root    4096 2006-05-08 19:33 Catalina
-rw-r--r--  1 tomcat tomcat  6954 2005-09-12 22:20 catalina.policy

-rw-r--r--  1 tomcat tomcat 38929 2005-09-12 22:20 web.xml

the conf is a symlink with the following permissions:

ls -l /srv/www/tomcat5/base/conf
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 17 2005-11-08 10:12 /srv/www/tomcat5/base/conf
-> /etc/tomcat5/base

my base looks like this:

ls -l /srv/www/tomcat5/base/
total 4
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root   17 2005-11-08 10:12 conf -> /etc/tomcat5/base
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root   21 2005-11-08 10:12 logs -> /var/log/tomcat5/base
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root   28 2005-11-08 10:12 temp ->
/var/cache/tomcat5/base/temp
drwxr-xr-x  11 root root 4096 2006-05-18 10:58 webapps
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root   28 2005-11-08 10:12 work ->
/var/cache/tomcat5/base/work

I have 2 servers that have the same problem, is anyone else
experiencing this??? It used to work maybe a few days ago and I have
made some updates since then now it does not.

Thanks.
George
