This is a classpath problem when compiling the servlets.
AFAIK there won't be this problem should you install at least jdk1.2.1 as
the servlets come with
it. If not then you will need to add the jsdk.jar to your classpath and then
try compiling it.
JRun comes with its a packaged JRE which I don't recommend using. I always
install JDK1.2.1 and tell
the JRun installer to use that instead. JRun only compiles jsp files into
servlets, you need to compile your own
servlet java files and deploy them on JRun as per the docs (which are not
the best, you are quite right).
