The Tomcat 5.0.x series requires a JDK, not just a JRE, since the JDK includes a Java language compiler, whereas the JRE does not. The 5.5.x versions of Tomcat does not require a JDK, since the 5.5.x downloads include a compiler. You should be able to use a tools.jar from any JDK download compatible with your JRE (even a non-Mac OS version), since the compiler code is pure Java. Go here to get one: http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp Or, as another poster suggested, switch to Tomcat 5.5.x. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
