As i said in previously post, Tomcat 5.5.25 made a lot modified at policy file, which may enhance security on web application but it cause a lot work from deployment work. I hit another error

SEVERE: Context initialization failed java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.lang.RuntimePermission accessDeclaredMembers) at java.security.AccessControlContext.checkPermission(AccessControlContext.java:323)

vi 04webapps.policy which usually located at policy.d folder

mkyong@mkyong-desktop:/etc/tomcat5.5/policy.d$ 04webapps.policy

add following statement in policy file

permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "accessDeclaredMembers";

For example,

  // JVM properties to allow read access
    permission java.util.PropertyPermission "java.version", "read";
    permission java.util.PropertyPermission "java.vendor", "read";
    permission java.util.PropertyPermission "java.vendor.url", "read";
    permission java.util.PropertyPermission "java.class.version", "read";
        permission java.util.PropertyPermission "java.specification.version", "read";
        permission java.util.PropertyPermission "java.specification.vendor", "read";
        permission java.util.PropertyPermission "java.specification.name", "read";
 
        permission java.util.PropertyPermission "java.vm.specification.version", "read";
        permission java.util.PropertyPermission "java.vm.specification.vendor", "read";
        permission java.util.PropertyPermission "java.vm.specification.name", "read";
        permission java.util.PropertyPermission "java.vm.version", "read";
        permission java.util.PropertyPermission "java.vm.vendor", "read";
        permission java.util.PropertyPermission "java.vm.name", "read";
 
    // Required for OpenJMX
    permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "getAttribute";
 
        // Allow read of JAXP compliant XML parser debug
        permission java.util.PropertyPermission "jaxp.debug", "read";
 
    // Precompiled JSPs need access to this package.
    permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "accessClassInPackage.org.apache.jasper.runtime";
    permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "accessClassInPackage.org.apache.jasper.runtime.*";
 
    permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "accessDeclaredMembers";
 
};

Saved it, restart Tomcat and Done.
