Hi, I think somebody with deeper knowledge about the internals must look into it. Either the problem is, that the documentation is out-of-date (maybe today it is not necessary to split the class-path-entry anymore), or it is a problem of the class-loaders used in the servlet-engines (WLS accepts Class-path-entries that are up to 120+ characters line-length). Maybe somebody working on Tomcat (or at least knowing its code-base a bit) can enlighten us more on this... Meaning it might make sense to push BEA to check their class-loader and encourage somebody to take a look at the spec's and class-loaders on the Apache-side ==> open a problem at BEA and open a bug-report in BugZilla

It's just that WebLogic 6.1 (not sure about 7) can't handle this. So I guess I should eat some humble pie and WebLogic should sort things out at their end...

If you open a bug for this in Bugzilla I'll get it taken care of tonight.
