Hi all, I am tring to include external classes that are needed for my servlet class. I tried to modify classpath in setclasspath.bat file by set CLASSPATH=%JAVA_HOME% \lib\tools.jar;c:\mindbridge\classes\saclasses.jar I needed all the classes in the saclasses.jar file for my servlet. When i restart the tomcat server, it just shows a blank page with out showing the default page. Is this the right way of including classes? pradeep ----- Original Message ----- From: "Pradeep Gummi" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Friday, September 5, 2003 8:28 am Subject: Re: How to use classes from another webapp/context?
