Re: Admin Webapp Problems (WAS: MBean server?)
Okay, this was just dumb on my part. When I installed Tomcat I installed
the tomcat-noexamples and tomcat-admin RPM's. However, I noticed that
installing Tomcat on a different machine (with examples), the first
section in the server.xml file having to do with (believe it or not!)
MBean server was not commented out like it was in the noexamples
server.xml file. So basically that's all the problem was... if I had
looked at server.xml more closely sooner I could have saved myself lots
of frustration!
Thanks for all the help,
