In fact, it was something to do with the way I was launching Tomcat. I had :
set CATALINA_HOME=D:\...\tomcat4 ... cmd /C "%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\startup.bat" I changed it to: cmd /C "d:\[actual path]\tomcat4\bin\startup.bat" Then everything worked. Maybe I am doing something dumb or my BAT file is wrong, but there it is for future reference. > -----Original Message----- > From: Mike Curwen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 30 July 2003 22:59 > To: 'Tomcat Users List' > Subject: RE: Can't find ocijdbc9 in java.library.path > > > I'm surprised that classes12.zip would load in the first application. > Normally you would have to rename this file classes12.jar.
