The classloading hierarchy has changed in Tomcat 6; in particular, there is no shared directory anymore, but there is a lib directory (under catalina.home). If you're missing that, you'll get the exception you noted. If you simply expect your 5.5 conf/server.xml and conf/*.properties files to work in Tomcat 6, you're sadly mistaken. > I'm really stumped on this one as I've used tomcat for > years with no problems. Read the doc for the current level, not what you've used for years. Things change. > Is there a CLASSPATH environment variable that needs to exist? NEVER, NEVER, NEVER set the CLASSPATH variable for Tomcat. (Besides, services ignore environment variables.) - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
