Is there some reason why you are not including your lib jars directly in the war file? Normally, you do not need to create the webapps/cams/WEB-INF/lib directory because you can put your lib jars right into the war file. Take a look at the documentation for the war task.
If you are not including your lib jars in the war file because of their size, and they are stable (do not change often), then you can place them in standard location on your machine and modify your system classpath (and/or Tomcat classpath) to include them. Hope this helps, --Maciej > I use ant to war them into say, cams.war into > tomcat/webapps Now, if the cams directory is already > present in webapps, tomcat does not redeploy cams when > i restart.
