I am trying to run axis on a windows98 laptop, with j2RE1.4.1_03, and I had a quite a time getting past the activation.jar not found message on happyaxis.jsp - HOWEVER, I STILL have not gotten past the similar message at the top: "could not find a dependency of class org.apache.axis.transport.http.AxisServlet from file axis.jar"
before I found (well actually, created) a lib/endorsed folder to put things into, the "root cause" was null; now it says the root cause is javax/servlet/http/HttpServlet and again suggests that it can happen when activation.jar is only in the webapp classpath. It is now in both the webapp classpath and the officially endorsed common classpath, which is why the other stuff is all being found. Think I need to put a copy of the javax/servlet jar into my "endorsed" library? Bill
