your right I have not seen anyone with this problem. If you hava a package in your classpath that has org.apache.naming it may get confused and not see the one in your bootstrap.jar. that is why I asked what your classpath looks like.
I am not sure what to do at this point.... :( -----Original Message----- From: John Kilbourne [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, December 09, 2001 12:47 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: : newbie tomcat 4.0.1installation on NT While waiting for the download, I unzipped the tomcat I downloaded earlier today, and had the same results, which is what happened with the newly installled version. I un-jarred the bootstrap.jar just to be sure the Naming/jndiPermissions class was in there (it was). If the class is in the jar that is also the current directory, and my setCLASSPATH command ended in a period (all true), then what is going on here? I tried compiling some other java source I had lying around, and had no problem. I feel I understand tomcat installation much better, except that I still can't get it to work. I would start over, except I've done that twice already. I am tempted to just use the old jwsdk, even though it is out of date; I just want this servlet of mine to run. I don't see similar questions to mine on the archives, so others must not be having my frustration. Any advice?
