Where is server.xml being loaded from?

[Luciana Moreira Sa de Souza Signed by - PrivaSphere AG <si...@privasphere.com>]

Hi,

I have tomcat  5.5 on debian lenny and had some issues with permission 
on the server.xml. This happened due to the number of symbolic links 
that exist in this installation which make the final "real" location not 
so obvious as $|CATALINA_HOME|/conf/server.xml

My question is: To avoid this kind of problem in the future, is there an 
output somewhere showing me where this file is truly being loaded from?

Regards,
Luciana Moreira

Tomcat as distributed via tomcat.apache.org doesn't have any symlinks
and no need to track such information.  The Debian folks will be better
able to help you in this case.  Most people on this list will just
advise you to drop the Debian distribution of tomcat in favor of the
tomcat.apache.org distribution which performs rock solid w/o any symlinks.

Nope. That would probably be a question for a debian list.
