Subject: Problem changing default web.xml : conf/web.xml is not processed

Hi there,

I have a problem changing the web.xml in the conf dir (conf/web.xml).
I wanted to configure some central stuff there and wondered why it isn't
working.
Then I placed a wrong tag with no closing tag into the web.xml.
The sax-parser must throw an exception with this file.
But nothing happened.
I tested the same wrong tag in an webapps web.xml file. There I got the
exception.
My conclusion is now, that the default web.xml is not proccessed!

I wonder why, because the server.xml file is in the same directory.
If server.xml is found by tomcat, why not the default web.xml.

I can post a log-trace if you are intereseted, but I don't see any
informative help in it.
Be method opening the default web.xml does not log anything.

Any comments, how I can make tomcat reading and processing the default
web.xml are welcome.

Kind regards
Guido
