hi, im trying to send email using JavaMail thru servlets. i already placed the necessary api in the lib directory [adiaz@Ronin lib]$ pwd /home/adiaz/Java/crs-web/lib [adiaz@Ronin lib]$ jar tf mailapi.jar | grep mail/Add javax/mail/Address.class [adiaz@Ronin lib]$ ls activation.jar imap.jar mailapi.jar mail.jar pop3.jar README smtp.jar the web-application compiles with no problems but this is what i got when accessing the servlet Location: /crs/RemindUser Internal Servlet Error: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/mail/Address at java.lang.Class.newInstance0(Native Method) at java.lang.Class.newInstance(Class.java:237) at org.apache.tomcat.facade.ServletHandler.getServlet(Unknown Source) at org.apache.tomcat.facade.ServletHandler.preInit(Unknown Source) at org.apache.tomcat.facade.ServletHandler.init(Unknown Source) at org.apache.tomcat.facade.ServletHandler.service(Unknown Source) at org.apache.tomcat.core.ContextManager.internalService(Unknown Source) at org.apache.tomcat.core.ContextManager.service(Unknown Source) at org.apache.tomcat.modules.server.Http10Interceptor.processConnection(Unknown Source) at org.apache.tomcat.util.net.TcpWorkerThread.runIt(Unknown Source) at org.apache.tomcat.util.threads.ThreadPool$ControlRunnable.run(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:484) i noticed that the jar files were not copied to the deployment directory. what am i doing wrong? where in the ${TOMCAT_HOME}/lib directory should i manually place the JavaMail (and JAF) APIs? btw, im using the ant tool bundled with the jakarta-tomcat-3.3-devel (or something like that) nightly build. thanks! -- "Programming, an artform that fights back." ============================= Anuerin G.
