This is known Tomcat bug, see
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11489
simply create a directory called "temp" under your CATALINA_HOME

Hello,

I'm trying to install opencms on a linux server running apache and
tomcat.

Apache forwards requests to tomcat based on this snip from httpd.conf:

JkMount /opencms/* ajp13

Tomcats server.xml contains:

<Host name="1.1.1.1">
  <Context
      path=""
      docBase="/web/sites/donkey"
      reloadable="true"
      swallowOutput="true" />
  <Context
      path="opencms"
      docBase="/web/sites/donkey/opencms"
      reloadable="true"
      swallowOutput="true" />
</Host>

i copied the opencms.war to /web/sites/donkey/opencms and unziped it.

restarted tomcat and apache, and on tomcats startup the loading of
opencms failed, with this exception in the log file:
<snip>

If anyone knows what this means or what i've done wrong , i'd greatly
appreciate some help.
