I would definitely set up a context in = server.xml=20 like this:

<Context=20 path=3D"/Oasis"
docBase=3D"webapps/Oasis"
debug=3D"0" =
reloadable=3D"true" >

That should solve you problem. = Otherwise,=20 just put the .jar files in the D:\Java\jakarta-tomcat\lib = directory. =20 Then the jars would be available for all applications served by=20 tomcat.

Subject: Re: jar's still not = picked up in=20 WEB-INF/lib

I am experiencing the same problem = that others=20 have reported on this topic. I explicitly set my Tomcat = classpath to be=20 sure of no redundancies in the jars. I have a Tomcat startup = batch file=20 with one line that adds in all the jars in my WEB-INF\lib to the = classpath=20 explicitly. When I comment that line out, I get the = classnotfound=20 errors. When I put it back in, my web app runs fine. = Obviosly I=20 want the line commented out and have the jars picked up in the lib = dir, but=20 that aint happening.

Because the jars work when explicitly = included in=20 the classpath, I conclude that the jars are not corrupt. I also=20 conclude, based on commenting out the explicit lib jars classpath, = that there=20 are not redundant jars in the classpath. I have also checked = other=20 sources for possible classpath jar redundancies and I am just not = finding=20 any.

I am running under Win2000 = using=20 jdk1.3.

These is the exact dir structure I = have set=20 up:

D:\Java\jakarta-tomcat\webapps

D:\Java\jakarta-tomcat\webapps\Oasis

D:\Java\jakarta-tomcat\webapps\Oasis\jsp

D:\Java\jakarta-tomcat\webapps\Oasis\META-INF

D:\Java\jakarta-tomcat\webapps\Oasis\resources

D:\Java\jakarta-tomcat\webapps\Oasis\WEB-INF

D:\Java\jakarta-tomcat\webapps\Oasis\WEB-INF\classes
D:\Java\jakarta-tomcat\webapps\Oasis\WEB-INF\lib

I have gone through Craig McClanahans = list of=20 things to check and all seems to be as it should.

Any hope for a fix? Should I = continue to=20 look at my config? I have heard some people talk about setting = up an=20 explicit context for the app in the server.xml. Does this solve = the=20 problem consistantly?
