Hi, I finally figured out what went wrong. There is a third party .jar file under application/WEB-INF/lib. That jar file also contains javax.mail class.
Thanks for your help.

This is usually indicative of a classpath error - meaning that you have the class specified in two places on the classpath and Tomcat is selecting one of each, rather than the same one. The fact that you have symlinked jars all over the place is probably not helping. Download & install a fresh version from tomcat.apache.org and start over. Make sure only one version of mail.jar exists in tomcat/lib and not anywhere else. p --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
