Issue/Introduction

Jul 24, 2015 3:36:52 PM org.apache.catalina.mbeans.GlobalResourcesLifecycleListener createMBeans

SEVERE: No global naming context defined for server

 

 

Environment: 

 All (Windows/Solaris/Red Hat Linux)

 

Resolution:

The GlobalResourcesLifecycleListener bean is for creating global references in the normal Tomcat server.xml that can then be referenced within webapp.

In the case of SPS proxy-engine deployment of Tomcat, it is a cut-down deployment of Tomcat, and does not use server.xml file.

 

Therefore, the error message can be ignored.

Environment

Release:
Component: SMSPS
