you must have mail.jar in your classpath (usually in the folder /tomcat/common/lib/(mail.jar).
you should be able to compile the sendmail servlet by executing the command : classes/> javac -classpath $pathtotomcat/tomcat/common/lib/mail.jar;$pathtotomcat/tomcat/common/lib /servlet.jar; SendmailServlet.java I think that would do. (depends on what functionality you have added to your SendmailServlet). hope it helps [EMAIL PROTECTED] > -----Original Message----- > From: Jose Luis Rojano Piernagorda [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: 18. febrúar 2002 13:23 > To: 'Tomcat Users List' > Subject: Re: Problem with SendMailServlet examples application > > > Hi Randy, > > Do you know why, in the example directory > "$CATALINA_HOME/webapps/examples/WEB-INF/classes" we have > every source file > (*.java) with its corresponding binary (*.class) except for the > SendMailServlet.java source????? > > I also tried to compile the SendMailServlet.java to get the > corresponding > absent binary, but I don't know how to do it correctly.
