Re:JSP not seeing WEB-INF/lib
Yeah, that's what's I have. It just occurred to me (this should've been obvious from the start) that it's the java compiler that's having trouble seeing WEB-INF/lib. How would I specify to the java compiler to look in WEB-INF/lib and possibly other directories (without changing CLASSPATH for the entire application server)? Is there something in web.xml for this? Thanks, Noel Please make sure you have a directory yourapp/WEB-INF and not yourapp/web-inf.

Re: a simple ( irritating) classpath problem
I'm also having problems with WEB-INF/lib. At the time the JSP is compiled, it seems that the Java compiler doesn't use WEB-INF/lib. What can be done about this? Thanks, Noel hi, There are three basic areas that classes can be put in tomcat: WEB-INF/classes - contains all the classes that form the web application WEB-INF/lib - contains jars that the web application uses TOMCAT_HOME/lib - contains jars that are available to _all_ applications using tomcat because i put all the package (com.oreilly.servlet.*) in the same directory with the servlet (under web-inf/classes/ com/servlet/ directory) if it is the package com.oreilly.servlet then it should go in WEB-INF/classes/com/oreilly/servlet - even better, I assume you got it as a jar, just put the jar in WEB-INF/lib . If it is a zip, then rename it to a jar. i tried putting the cos.jar file in the web-inf/lib directory, it didn't work what do you mean it didn't work? try jar -tf cos.jar to check that the classes are in the jar. I assume you are importing the required classes and that they exist in the jar. in put these files directly under the web-inf/classes/ directory , it didn't work either again, should be according to package then i added the full path tomcat_home/lib/cos.jar, to the classpath, didn't work either. I'm not sure why that didn't work - although if you put cos.jar in the classpath it _should_ be available to all web applications. well, i gave up, i just wanted to learn the LOGICAL way to set the classpath up. you dont need to set the classpath yourself. just put your jars in WEB-INF/lib and your classes in WEB-INF/classes hth, cheers dim This communication is for informational purposes only.

Re: a simple ( irritating) classpath problem
What about tomcat-3.2.3? I've been doing a lot of searching; all I've found were trouble reports and no solutions. Can you provide a URL, please? Thanks, Noel Guys, not to be short-tempered here or anything, but open your eyes! These class loading issues have been a hot topic on the list for the last week, while all of you are writing/reading your own messages. 1) Search or browse the list the archives. 2) See classloader.html that describes Catalina's class loading architecture.

RE: tomcat.policy and WEB-INF/lib?
Actually, I'm having problems getting stuff in WEB-INF/lib jar files to be imported by my JSP's (I'm getting ClassNotFoundException's). I was wondering if tomcat.policy had anything to do with the problems. Thanks, Noel well you can use the classloader, let's say that you have a jar file (test.jar) containing a property file (test.properties) and the jar file is in lib, then from your servlet you can say this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream(test.properties); is that what you are trying to achieve?

WEB-INF/lib not used?
I've just created a new web app. I'm able to bring up a trivial JSP so I'm pretty sure I've done something right. However, when I try to do an import within the JSP (eg import com.epicentric.common.*) I get Package com.epicentric.common not found in import. even though the jar file is installed in WEB-INF/lib. According to the docs, I shouldn't have to do anything other than put the jar into this directory. Can anyone help me out, please? Thanks, Noel This communication is for informational purposes only.

Re: WEB-INF/lib not used?
It's only in WEB-INF/lib (it worked when I put it in tomcat-dir/lib, but I know I don't really want to do that). Noel Do you have it anywhere else in your CLASSPATH? It should only be in your WEB-INF/lib directory... - r This communication is for informational purposes only.

Re: Version
That's the version of the LICENSE file that you're seeing. It will have nothing to do with the version of Tomcat or Apache that you're running. Noel Rob, Obviously, you and I need to learn a little more before we can open our own little yahoo shop. I found out that in tomcat, it is named LICENSE. lol! I'm just kidding dude! That help was very useful and more than $10 worth even though the name was LICENSE.
