Tomcat 4.1.10 doesn't follow symlinks?
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12784
I may have filed this bug too early, without checking here first.
I noticed that if any of my .jar files in my WEBINF/lib directory are symlinks, I can't start my webapp with this new version of tomcat. Has anyone experienced similar problems? Is there an equivalent for the Apache "follow symlinks" directive that I have not stumbled across yet?
Why did this work in 4.0.4?

Sun 1.4.0_02/Linux and Tomcat/Linux startup parameters
Posted by Nome real <we...@cienciapura.com.br>.
Hi all,
I see in the documentation that we need to use the following parameters to start Tomcat 4.1.10, if you are using
Linux 2.4.x
ulimit -s 2048
export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5
export J2SE_PREEMPTCLOSE=1
Well, I also start Tomcat with -Xmx850m, but I keep having errors like "unable to create new native thread"
when, I know there is plenty of memory available.
I just commented out the 3 lines above, and everything worked back again !! Can someone confirm that with
Sun JDK 1.4 we don't need these 'workarounds' anymore or this is just a fatality ?
Thanks
Renato.

This issue is discussed in the following bugs:
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11501
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12076
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12784
It is apparently a "tightening" of security. A fix is not available at the moment, as I understand it. Eventually, the security check that enforces this particular issue will be optional, but no one has contributed code to this effect.

This is an excerpt from the Tomcat 4.1 Relese Notes that might help.
--------------------------------------
Symlinking static resources
--------------------------------------
Unix symlinks will not work when used in a web application to link
resources
located outside the web application root directory.
This behaviour will be made optional in an upcoming version of Tomcat
4.1, but
will be the default one.
Hope this helps,
Nathan.

I have the same problem when I try to include following a symbolic
link. Worked in 4.0.4, not now.
Man it is making me very upset. If I find something I will let you
know.
