Hello Brian,
you were right. I forgot that the classpath for tomcat has to
be set in the tomcat startup script (tomcat.bat on my machine).
But now i ran into another problem. The log4j.properties file
isn't read anymore! I put it in axis.jar, in the classes directory,
in the lib directory, used the TOMCAT_OPTS environment variable...
where is the problem? is there an order in the CLASSPATH for the
log4j, commons-logging and axis libraries?
thanx for your help
