I have created the server(Apache Tomcat 4.1) in eclipse europa. The JDK for Server is j2sdk_1_4_07 and jdk for the application to be deployed on server is j2sdk_1_4_07.

I deployed my appliation on server and added database connections properties under <ResouceParams> tag in server.xml

When I start the server I am getting exception

SEVERE: Parse Error at line 2 column 231: Document root element “web-app”, must match DOCTYPE root “null”.

Lahiri,

I have created the server(Apache Tomcat 4.1) in eclipse europa. The JDK for Server is j2sdk_1_4_07 and jdk for the application to be deployed on server is j2sdk_1_4_07.

Are you using Eclipse Europa?
If yes, I am afraid this is not the relevant forum. You need to post your query to eclipse forums. Also this doesn’t look like an eclipse issue, more like a tomcat – JDK compatibility. Please refer http://tomcat.apache.org/security-4.html
It is suggested to configure Tomcat 5.5/6 instead.
Hope this helps.
