[PATCH] jakarta-tomcat-4.0/catalina/src/conf/catalina.policy

Hello,

Please apply the attached patch to the HEAD branch of 
jakarta-tomcat-4.0/catalina/src/conf/catalina.policy. This patch restores the 
ability to execute JSP pages when Tomcat is started with the "-security" 
argument.

Without this patch, a security exception will be thrown when the jasper compiler 
tries to load the JspServlet class because the jasper jar files are no longer in 
a directory with the necessary security privileges. This patch merely grants the 
new location of the jasper compiler (i.e. shared/lib) the same security 
privileges that the old location (i.e. jasper/lib) had.

Thanks,

Patrick
