Context [/roller] startup failed

[calpas <pa...@web.de>]

This prob had one guy before :
On 5/9/06, AJ Chen 

This is the prob:
 I have a problem when following the installation guide (for
 2.3-incubating) to install roller.  I copied the roller directory from
build
 directory to {tomcat}/webapps.  Created context configuration file named
 roller.xml and placed it in the Tomcat conf/Catalina/localhost directory.
 Started tomcat 5.5 on Mac OS X 10.3.9, but  Tomcat failed to start roller.
Here
 is the error message from catalina.out:

INFO: XML validation disabled
13.06.2006  org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start
SCHWERWIEGEND: Error listenerStart
13.06.2006  org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext start
SCHWERWIEGEND: Context [/roller] startup failed due to previous errors


Here the error message from roller.log:
"
ERROR 2006-06-13 22:20:14,433 StandardContext:listenerStart - Error
configuring application listener of class
org.roller.presentation.RollerContext
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.roller.presentation.RollerContext
        at
org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.loadClass(WebappClassLoader.java:1332)
"

I formerly had an installation of an roller dis, but i thought i had deleted
everything. find it curious that org.roller.presentation.RollerContext is
tried to be loaded where there are only org.apache.roller.* classes instead
!
cannot figure it out.

Deleting the corresponding subdirectory under your Tomcat "work" directory 
would have worked.

You need not rename each time you install.

--a.

OK guys, 
you helped me a lot, thx !

What I actually did:
givin the roller-directory a new name, adjust the roller.xml to that new
name.
Now it works !
Whyever, if you just delete the older installation and copy the new one
keeping the old directory name, something  'cached' is used or whatever and
the new version is not properly recognized.
So renaming keeps you on the secure track.

Thx again!
