I tried that too.. same problem... anyways.. apart from that going as the suggestion of without spaces directory path... here is the modified thgs CLASSPATH=.;c:\java;c:\tomcat\common\lib\servlet.jar CATALINAHOME=c:\tomcat JAVA_HOME and path remaing the same. Now compiling c:/javacode>javac -classpath<c:\tomcat\common\lib\servlet.jar> HelloWorld.java it said - Access Denied
then compiling like c:/javacode>javac HelloWorld.java it gives same set of errors and then again compiling like c:/javacode>javac -classpath<c:\tomcat\common\lib\servlet.jar> HelloWorld.java Windows gave a error saying 'javac' encountered an error.. please close. and then closing and oping cmd again and then compiling like c:/javacode>javac HelloWorld.java I got no errors... but also.. no class file created. :( What do you have to say now? --------------------------------- Yahoo!
