Re: Java exception

[Roland Schweitzer <Roland.Schweitzer@xxxxxxxx>]

Phil,

Not necessarily.  The '.war' file is modified by the 
configure/installation process to include information about your local 
mysql setup.  The configure process also copies the modified las.war 
file from the distribution location to the webapps directory and renames 
it according the "/las-blah" name you choose in the config process.  I 
still think it would be a good idea to rebuild, but I realize if you 
don't already have 'ant' installed it's more than a two minute exercise.
