To be clear, in the beginning of the exception, you see that org.apache.commons.digester.Digester is loaded. It is in the file : server/lib/commons-digester.jar
StandardServer is in the file : server/lib/catalina.jar (unzip tells me everything is fine in this jar : testing: org/apache/catalina/core/StandardServer.class OK) So why the hell isn't it loaded at startup ? It is in the same directory and should known by the tomcat classloader, no ?
