Hi Frederic,

Very interesting. I'm glad you got it working. Let us know if you investigate 
further and find out anything interesting.

Something we've run into in the past is deploying a new version over an old 
version without first undeploying the old version. I tend to use the Tomcat 
manager to deploy and if you don't undeploy first the new war is unpacked over 
the top of the old content in ${TOMCAT_HOME}/webapps/thredds. The undeploy 
removes the entire thredds/ directory so you get a clean install. We now make 
sure to undeploy first because of occasions when we saw strange, hard to trace 
class/version collisions when we didn't undeploy first.

Cheers, 

Ethan
