http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32444 Summary: Activation.jar not found when in WEB-INF/lib Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.0.28 Platform: HP OS/Version: SunOS Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: Catalina AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi all. I have a webapp which refers to javax.activation.DataSource. This class is contained in activation.jar. I placed activation.jar in WEB-INF/lib for the application, generated the WAR file, and uploaded it. Checking on server shows that WAR file was correctly unpacked and contains WEB-INF/lib/activation.jar. However, when the servlet that needs it is called by Tomcat, it fails consistently with a NoClassdefFoundException. I managed to workaround it by moving activation.jar from WEB-INF/lib to the Tomcat-wide common/lib folder, after which it all worked just fine. Moving it back again, and it stops working again. So, is this a bug with the Tomcat classloader that loads JAR files from WEB- INF/lib? -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
