True. They are really an application shop. They have a few
that play with Tomcat, but I am the only one that has really
used it.
Ah, ha. You are a good man, Charlie Brown. That sounds like a
good lead. I will see what I can do with it.

Hi,
I have searched instructions and websites with no real luck on this.
I've used Tomcat in production since some 3.* version but I've been lost since after
4.0 about where to put a simple servlet class or how to include the servlet.jar so
jdk1.4 can see it. I've created war files as the

First, you shouldn't need to do ANYTHING to CLASSPATH for Tomcat 4.1.x and
higher, especially messing around with servlet.jar.
Second, as far as where to put your servlets, try the Application
Developer's Guide here: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-
How do you get it access items that are not within the tomcat
install. I have tomcat installed locally on c:. There is an
additional library located on v: (loose classes and jars). We
could not get Tomcat to access these classes.

See the ClassLoader HOWTO:

Shared - This class loader is the place to put classes and resources that
you wish to share across ALL web applications (unless Tomcat internal

However, the standard Tomcat 4 startup scripts

the CLASSPATH environment variable
That was my point. JAR up your class files, and put them where Tomcat
expects them to be. Problem solved. People typically use ant to do this,
so that it is fairly automatic when deploy time comes around.

Well, sounds like you have some re-education work to do. The whole point
is to be portable. Putting things your web application requires onto a
network share (I think you mentioned V:) that won't exist anywhere else is
not the best practice for design, especially if you have to go in and
