Description Anto Paul 2006-03-09 12:47:09 UTC 
Hi,
    server.xml contains an element declaring access log valve. When it is
configured it is giving error at start up ClassNotFoundException:
org.apache.catalina.valves.ByteBufferAccessLogValve. Also it is not found in the
repository at
http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/tomcat/container/tc5.5.x/catalina/src/share/org/apache/catalina/valves/

The element is 

<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.ByteBufferAccessLogValve"
                 directory="logs"  prefix="localhost_access_log." suffix=".txt"
                 pattern="common" resolveHosts="false"/>

Obviously, if the class does not exist, it's not going to work. There are other
access log valves you can use.

If the class does not exist why you keep the element in the server.xml. You
should fix it instead of shouting.

The ByteBufferAccessLogValve was an experiment that only briefly existed in the
repo. When it was removed, server.xml should have been updated and wasn't.

I have justed removed references to this Valve from server.xml.
