Hello Michael,
*************************************************************** MK> Hello Dirk, MK> thanks for your answer.

MK> BTW, do you know by any chance whether this applies to the velocity MK> packages and to the commons libraries too? Bill in an earlier mail gives you the link to a document describing the problem in more detail. I don't know whether velocity can be put into the shared directory, but I doubt and wouldn't advise. MK> It seems that struts also requires that all the libraries that it MK> depends on are located in the WEB-INF/lib diretory as well. MK> Is that also right?
