No Context configured to process this request

[William Wragg <wi...@datapro.co.uk>]

Hi,

I am using tomcat 4.0.4 on sco openserver 5.0.5a with JDK1.3_02. I have 
installed the exact same setup and webapps on many machines (linux and 
windows as well as sco), and they have all worked fine. I have just 
installed on another machine and the client gets the following error 
message when they try to go to a page:

Apache Tomcat/4.0.4 - HTTP Status 500 - No Context configured to process 
this request

type Status report
message No Context configured to process this request
description The server encountered an internal error (No Context configured 
to process this request) that prevented it from fulfilling this request.

The error message also appears when they try to use the manager webapp. 
Looking at the localhost_log the contexts seem to have been created, or at 
least the log looks just the same as the log entries from a working site:

The MAPPING error is me trying to connect to http://<SERVER>:8080/jobreq

Does anyone know what is happening it's driving me nuts.
