Exception during start up of tomcat: SAXParseException: The string "--" is not permitted within comments
Summary: Exception during start up of tomcat: SAXParseException:
The string "--" is not permitted within comments
Product: Tomcat 4
Version: 4.1.24
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
Status: NEW
Severity: Normal
Priority: Other
Component: Unknown
AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
ReportedBy: tamdi007@yahoo.com
Hi,
I am trying out tomcat, for the very first time. I unzipped the jar available
on the jakarta site.
Made the following changes:
1) Enable the ROOT context. Edit install_dir/conf/server.xml and uncomment
this line: <Context path="" docBase="ROOT" debug="0"/>. Not necessary in
Tomcat 4.0.3 and earlier.
2) Enable the invoker servlet. Go to install_dir/conf/web.xml and uncomment the
servlet-mapping element that maps the invoker servlet to /servlet/*. Not
necessary prior to Tomcat 4.1.12.
3) Change the port to 80. Edit install_dir/conf/server.xml and change the port
attribute of the Connector element from 8080 to 80.
4) Turn on servlet reloading. Edit install_dir/conf/server.xml and add a
DefaultContext subelement to the main Service element and supply true for
the reloadable attribute.
5) Set the JAVA_HOME variable. Set it to refer to the base JDK directory, not
the bin subdirectory.
And I started it up using the startup.bat. I got the following error. I did
some research, and found out that the solution involved in modifying some
DTD'd, but there were no DTD's in the extracted zip file for tomcat.
Can anyone pls guide me ?
The error snippet is as followds:
