Try putting the jar file in %CATALINA_HOME%\webapps\axis\WEB-INF\lib and restart tomcat
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 14 February 2004 13:00 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Axis and Classpath JAR's question Hi, I would like to dploy a simple web service using AdminClient. However, this service uses third-party (i.e. non-java) classes, whose jars have been placed in my classpath. Hence the service compiles fine. However, after deployment onto Axis, When you access the service axis (in the Tomcat log) throws an exception that it cannot find these classes (even though they are in the classpath). Is there anything I need to do to register these jars in Axis when I deploy the service (for example in the WSDD file?) so that I can properly access the service? Thanks in advance, -Neil
