Project: Tomcat
Bug 31027 major error from minor whitespace error in properties file
Reported: 2004-09-02 22:36:52 | Status: resolved wontfix

A developer accidentally placed a tab character after the port number in the properties file for a tomcat instance. This prevented tomcat from listening on that port, but it was difficult to track down whether tomcat was running. Seems like the properties-file reader could easily trim excess whitespace before trying to use entries.
