The following page has been changed by JohnSisson:

The comment on the change is:
tools.jar only required for versions prior to M5

- If you use Java''''''Server Pages then Geronimo will need to have the Java Development Kit `tools.jar` file on its classpath.  If you're using a Sun JDK then the easiest (although cheesiest) way to make this possible is to copy `tools.jar` from `$JAVA_HOME/lib` to `$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext`.
+ If you use Java''''''Server Pages then Geronimo (versions before M5) will need to have the Java Development Kit `tools.jar` file on its classpath.

  There's also another way to work around the issue. Geronimo uses its own mechanism to discover the `tools.jar` file and once found adds it to CLASSPATH. Unless some prerequisities (''will other JREs work?'') aren't met, you won't have to make a copy of the file anymore.
