You wouldn't happen to be messing with the classpath at all would you?
That will cause headaches. Best advise is to leave the classpath alone
and let tomcat's classloader hierarchy handle finding classes.
Thought 2: Tell me more about this ClassFinder class. It's not a part
of Java's API and I'm wondering if it's not running it's own classloader
independant of tomcat's classloader mechanism.

Thank you for your comments thus far.
I have been unable to solve my problem as well. I even went so far as
to start with a machine with no development tools on it, downloading
just the elements I required, and then trying to redeploy. I am
fairly certain that there are no extra servlet jars anywhere, and that
servlet-api.jar from tomcat is in the path. Still I face the
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/servlet/ServletContext error. I
am using java 1.5.0_06 and and a 5.5 server. Well, trying to anyway!
=) I'll place the error information at the very bottom of this email
to avoid pushing down the previous responses too far. Any more ideas
would be appreciated!

javax/servlet/ServletContext
Hello David,
I included all jar & zip files on my computer, including j2ee.jar and
I'm
still having the problem.
I have just noticed a weird behaviour though, if I try to reload the jsp
right after the jsp fails the first
time it seems to run without throwing the exception. If I restart
Tomcat
and try again the problem starts
again. I could get this to work in theory by forcing it to run
through the
code once on startup
but I shouldn't have to do that and I honestly would prefer getting
it to
work as it should.

I take it you also included j2ee.jar in that search?

Hi,
I'm getting the same error. I searched my entire computer for any
jar/zip
files containing javax.servlet.ServletContext
and renamed all of them to ".original" so that they wouldn't be read
by the
JVM. I did this to all the files except for the file
common/lib/servlet-api.jar
I'm still getting the problem.
I'm using java version 1.4.2_10
The code i'm using used to work under Orion version 1.4.5 (I'm now
using
Tomcat 5.5)
The code that eventually throws the exception is basically:
ClassFinder classFinder = new ClassFinder();
classFinder.addFile("/opt/classes/com/canlink/commands/");
Class usrClass =
classFinder.findClass("com.canlink.commands.TestClass");
This line is what throws the exception:
Method setCmdLog = usrClass.getMethod("setCmdLog", new Class[]
{Boolean.class});
The stack trace is:

See - http://tomcat.apache.org/faq/classnotfound.html
Odds are you have your own servlet-api.jar somewhere in the webapp or
system
classpath and that is conflicting with the one in common/lib
(installed by
tomcat)

I am using the most recent J2RE 5 and I am certain that Tomcat's
servlet-api.jar is within my application's class path. I am not
sure why
the source cannot be found. Any helpin locating my problem would be
greatly
appreciated, and I would be happy to prove more information if
needed (I'm
not entirely sure what would be helpful). And again, I am sorry if
this is
not the place for this kind of question!Happy coding!John
