I have a suspicion that the OP painted himself into a corner by having a .war file for most of the webapp but then dumping some .jar files that the webapp depends on into Tomcat's lib directory - a really, really bad idea. Such .jar files should be part of the .war file, not in some accidentally associated location. Perhaps this is another instance of trying to save disk space by putting common .jar files in a single location for use by multiple webapps, rather than properly including them in each webapp. Whatever is going on smacks of poor application deployment methodology. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
