Christopher, Yes, I know about common and shared directories. I just wanted to have jars in external directories, but if I have to hand-edit the startup script (catalina.sh), I prefer copy the jars in the WEB-INF/lib directory.
Anyway Christopher, thanks very much, now I know what I had to do, and maybe I try editing the script, but later in time.
