Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me out with a problem with Tomcat 3.3.x. We've developed our application under the Tomcat 3.2.x implementation that is integrated into JBuilder 6. We use Struts for our framework. The application works fine in that environment. I am now trying to set up the deployment, and we wanted to use either Tomcat 3.3.x or Tomcat 4.0.x. Tomcat 4 seems to have issues with our ORB implementation (Borland) so for now I am working with 3.3.x. The problem is that when the application goes to compile a .jsp file for the first time, it encounters a ClassNotFoundException trying to find a Jasper class, JspServlet. e.x. (from the std output) 2002-07-30 17:58:30 - Ctx(/<app name>) : Class not found: org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet If I copy the jasper.jar file from $TOMCAT_HOME/lib/container into <app name>/WEB-INF/lib, then the Jasper classes are not found. However, this results in another class not found exception, this time it can't find the classes for the javac compiler! (sun.tools.something) If I then copy the tools.jar file from the JDK 1.3 distribution into the WEB-INF/lib directory, everything works. This would obviously seem to be an unacceptable solution however. I can't figure out why this is happening. It doesn't happen with the example applications under the exact same environment. (JAVA_HOME is set to point to JDK 1.3.1, TOMCAT_HOME is set to the right directory as well.) I have read the classloader-howto several times but I can't figure out what's wrong.
