Thanks for your advise. I did what you said. The jars have unique classes. Also the exact same application works on my other machine (exact jars and everything else), but the other machine runs Red Hat 9 and Tomcat 4.X.X and here I'm trying to install this app on Fedora Core 1 and Tomcat 5.0.24 I commented out both hosts to run the app on localhost:8080 and it gave me the same error... I'm at a loss... Any ideas? Thanks for the help. N.K.

I have two hosts defined in server.xml : in a following way: First things first -- if you're going to use multiple virtual hosts, you'd do well to either 1/ use separate appBase dirs, or 2/ disable autoDeploy and deployOnStartup for your <Host> elements. Otherwise, each vhost will deploy both webapps when it starts. : I have about 5 jar files containing com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.* in : /var/tomcat5/webapps/WebTest2/WEB-INF/lib Are all of the classes unique between the jars? (That is, are there any classes defined in multiple jars?) If not, things could get messy down the line. To start debugging, you could disable the vhost for WebTest1 (just comment it out) and focus on WebTest2. Then, pare down the list of jarfiles in WebTest2/WEB-INF/lib. Confirm that each jar is indeed a valid file (a quick "jar -tf {file}" should do) and that the required class, and every class on which it depends, is available either in a JAR in WebTest2/WEB-INF/lib or a bare class in WebTest2/WEB-INF/classes. : I copied the above jars to /var/tomcat5/webapps/WebTest2/WEB-INF/classes just : in case and got the same error. No need to do this -- WEB-INF/classes will only load bare class files; jarfiles must exist in WEB-INF/lib. : Does this have anything to do with the hosts I've defined? Did I create a : wrong directory structure? The dirs look OK. If other JSPs compile without a problem, you can pretty much narrow it down to a missing/rogue jarfile or class. : Everything below /var/tomcat5/webapps is owned by tomcat5 user. My Tomcat is : running as root since I need it to be listening on port 80. Cat it be a : permissions problem? Probably not a permissions problem, but you probably don't want root running the Tomcat process. Once you've solved your immediate JSP problem, you may want to look into commons-daemon/jsvc.
