I am testing the deployment of a webapp that needs some java extensions (jdbc connectors) which are not available on the server.
I specified the optional packages and their versions in the MANIFEST.MF file included in the WAR file as I suppose one has to.
Surprisingly, the manager app does not report any error when I deploy the war file... but, of course, the deployed application won't start because it does not have all the needed extensions.
I am using tomcat version 5.0.19 and my MANIFEST file contents are as follows:

Class-Path: servlet-api.jar activation.jar mail.jar com.mysql.jdbc

----------------------------
Do you detect any changes I might do to the MANIFEST.MF file so that Tomcat's manager stops it from being deployed?
I thank you in advance for any comments you may send.
