maybe its long since irrelant...
but I'm using Tomcat 5.5 and have previously used Tomcat 4.0
My experience is that the classpath is totally irrelevant -
the directorys I'm listening come from Tomcat 5.5 - but they shouldn't
be too different in Tomcat 4.x
just place the jar files in C:\Tomcat\common\lib - anything in this
folder (or in the classes folder) is effectively in the classpath - it
is available to all applications on the tomcat
or even better place them in the matching webapps\my_application\WEB-INF\lib
Anything in this folder is accessible, only to that web application
(where I would place your JAR file)
I hope that helps

Hi,
I ran into a similar problem while back. I know for sure that at one point
when I was playing around with SOAP, something was clobbering the system
classpath by setting it in a startup script. It might've been Tomcat. Check
the java.class.path system property from a servlet and see if it matches the
system class path (probably not). If not, look in tomcat's startup script
and see what it's doing with class path.

Subject: SOAP addressbook example
Hi,
I am trying to run the SOAP addressbook example. I am following the steps in
http://www.soapuser.com/server3.html.
The java files for the addressbook is located in
C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat
4.1\webapps\addressbook\WEB-INF\classes\samples\addressbook
I have a startup script located in the bin directory and sets all the class
path C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1\bin
set CLASSPATH="C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1\common\lib\soap.jar"
set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;"C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat
4.1\webapps\addressbook\WEB-INF\classes\samples\addressbook"
set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;"C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat
4.1\common\lib\activation.jar"
set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;"C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat
4.1\common\lib\mail.jar"
set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;"C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat
4.1\common\lib\resolver.jar"
set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;"C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat
4.1\common\lib\xercesImpl.jar"
set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;"C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat
4.1\common\lib\xercesSamples.jar"
set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;"C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat
4.1\common\lib\xml-apis.jar"
java -cp %CLASSPATH% org.apache.soap.server.ServiceManagerClient
http://localhost:10000/soap/servlet/rpcrouter deploy "C:\Program
Files\Apache Group\Tomcat
4.1\webapps\addressbook\WEB-INF\DeploymentDescriptor.xml"
The startup script runs fine and I have verified that the soap is startup
properly because I can access the page
http://localhost:10000/soap/servlet/rpcrouter
When I try to run the command under the bin directory, it gives me the error
java samples.addressbook.GetAddress
http://localhost:10000/soap/servlet/rpcrouter "John B. Good"
I got the error NoClassDefFoundError: samples/addressbook/GetAddress. I have
noticed that some people on the mailing list have also difficulty in running
this example. Please give me some advice as I am a beginner in java.
Do I need to create a jar file for the addressbook example?
May be I set something wrong in the deploymentdescriptor.xml file?
