[Simon Doran]

Hi,

  Has anyone ever seen the following error before with a build of 1.6.4?

  Thanks in advance for any insights.

OK, so I think I have answered two questions in one(!)

The key thing to spot from catalina.out is Deploying web application directory /mnt/.../apache-tomcat-8.0.12/...

So, Bill Schneider, you have your answer to your question here

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/xnat_discussion/tomcat$208/xnat_discussion/94vO-SHR7Hs/aorsPh1sguYJ

Tomcat 8 does not work with XNAT ... at least not without a few tweaks, which I did not have time to research.

My previous working version of XNAT 1.6.2.1 did not deploy under Tomcat 8 either and stopped with the same error. I then put Tomcat 7 on the machine instead and both the 1.6.2.1 and 1.6.4 worked first time.

As to why, I'll leave that for the experts :-)

Best wishes,

Simon
