What about tomcat-3.2.3? I've been doing a lot of searching; all I've found
were trouble reports and no solutions. Can you provide a URL, please?

Guys, not to be short-tempered here or anything, but open your eyes!
These class loading issues have been a hot topic on the list for the last week,
while all of you are writing/reading your own messages.
1) Search or browse the list the archives.
2) See classloader.html that describes Catalina's class loading architecture.
You might have to browse the CVS repository...
/jakarta-tomcat-4.0/catalina/docs/dev/classloader.html.
