so

java -classpath /usr/local/jdk1.3/lib/tools.jar  sun/tools/javac/Main
should return the usage options ->
Usage: javac <options> <source files>
...

try add 

java -bootclasspath usr/jdk1.3/lib/tools.jar:/usr/jdk1.3/jre/lib/rt.jar

classpaths rfukt@best.

I am includeing the tools.jar. My classpath is

 /usr/tomcat/lib/ant.jar:/usr/tomcat/lib/jasper.jar:
/usr/tomcat/lib/jaxp.jar:/usr/tomcat/lib/parser.jar:
/usr/tomcat/lib/servlet.jar:/usr/tomcat/lib/webserver.jar:
/usr/jdk1.3/lib/tools.jar:/usr/jdk1.3/lib/classes102.jar

I added a -verbose to the JAVACMD in the tomcat.sh. It
shows it loads all the above jar files and all of the
runtime classes from
/usr/jdk1.3/jre/lib/rt.jar

Why is not loading the tools.jar? How can I force it to
include it? Apparently it doesn't like to do it!!???
Has anyone had a similar problem? 

I even changed the CLASSPATH to CPATH in tomcat.sh and
used the command
java -cp $CPATH .... (rest of tomcat).

Somehow java doesn't want to load the tools.jar and
classes102.jar classes. 

Here is what I think: When we start 
java  (options) org.apache.tomcat.startup.Tomcat

tools.jar (even ant.jar) is not needed and is not
loaded in the JVM. When we access a .jsp file, we need
tools.jar, but JVM doesn't load try to load it. Does
this make sense.

Sorry for all the troubles. But, I have to get this
working and I appreciate your patience and time. I am
really interested to know if this works for anyone. I
feel this is a bug in tomcat. 

I love to come to your web site and run a .jsp file :-)

Thanks,
Hossein
