Hi Just gave this a quick try on tomcat 6 ubuntu 10.10 Apache Tomcat/6.0.28 1.6.0_26-b03 Sun Microsystems Inc. Linux 2.6.35-30-generic i386 It would not load, the logs had the message Tomcat6 error : jar not loaded. See Servlet Spec 2.3, section 9.7.2. Offending class: ... Following this<http://www.simplysimple.info/tomcat-error-jar-not-loaded-servlet-spec-23-section-972-offending-class-javaxservletservletclass/>I removed servlet-api-2.5.20081211.jar from the war and got a bit further Hitting permission problems Saving properties in "/usr/share/tomcat6/.basex"... /usr/share/tomcat6/.basex could not be written. Should it be attempting to save stuff here? /Andy
