Chris, Yes, I have the jars in .../My_Webapp/WEB-INF/lib folder. I use Tomcat6.0.14. I tried Tomcat5.5 also, but got the same result.
This is the log file when the server starts without the jars in the lib folder. And this should be the expected result May 2, 2008 9:38:40 AM org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener init INFO: The Apache Tomcat Native library which allows optimal performance in production environments was not found on the java.library.path: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_14\bin;.;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_14\bin;C:\OraHome\bin;C:\OraHome\jre\1.4.2\bin\client;C:\OraHome\jre\1.4.2\bin;C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_14\bin;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Roxio Shared\DLLShared\;c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\binn\;C:\apache-ant-1.7.0\bin;C:\apache-ant-1.7.0\lib;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_14\lib;C:\apache-tomcat-6.0.14\lib;C:\apache-tomcat-6.0.14\bin;.; May 2, 2008 9:38:40 AM org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol init INFO: Initializing Coyote HTTP/1.1 on http-8080 May 2, 2008 9:38:40 AM org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina load INFO: Initialization processed in 403 ms May 2, 2008 9:38:40 AM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardService start INFO: Starting service Catalina May 2, 2008 9:38:40 AM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardEngine start INFO: Starting Servlet Engine: Apache Tomcat/6.0.14 May 2, 2008 9:38:40 AM org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader validateJarFile INFO: validateJarFile(C:\apache-tomcat-6.0.14\webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF\lib\j2ee.jar) - jar not loaded.
