Hi,

I'm using tomcat 4.1 for our application, the problem i'm facing is that 
tomcat is often unable to find the classes present in my application and 
also certain classes like javax.servlet.HttpServlet, 
com.objectspace.jgl.Sequence etc... However, I've placed all the classes 
and jars in the appropriate folders.

I've placed all my classes in 
<CATALINA_HOME>/webapps/myapp/WEB-INF/classes
I've placed all my jars including the jgl3.1.0.jar(that contains 
com.objectspace.jgl.Sequence) in <CATALINA_HOME>/webapps/myapp/WEB-INF/lib

and all the other commonly used jars including the servlet.jar (contains 
javax.servlet.HttpServlet) in <CATALINA_HOME>/common/lib/

If I don't include the servlet.jar in my CLASSPATH, I get a no class def 
found error for HttpServlet and once I include servlet.jar, I get a 
noclassdef found error for Sequence. Can anybody please tell me as to how 
the CLASSPATH works for tomcat and what all should I include in 
classpath... I would be grateful for the info u provide... This problem is 
bugging me since the past 2 days :-(
