Hmm, how did you get a jasper directory under the tomcat root ? I checked my tomcat installation in Win2K & I didn't see anything like this. Your /common/lib seems to have a lot more than the standard libraries that shipped with it, I 've got : a) activation.jar b) jdbc2_0-stdex.jar c) jndi.jar d) jta-spec1_0_1.jar e) mail.jar f) naming-common.jar g) naming-resource.jar h) servlet.jar i) tools.jar j) tyrex.license k) tyrex-0.9.7.0.jar l) xerces.jar
How did dom.jar , xalan.jar, mysql.jar end up there ? Generally if you wish to use any other jar(s) you put them in {webapps root} /WEB-INF/lib .
