I have seen this happen as well. I'm fine with putting jars in either
the common/lib or the WEB-INF/lib, but how come shared/lib doesn't work
at all? Nothing that gets placed in that directory shows up in the
classloader. Is there something I need to configure to get those jars
to load?
Thanks for the help.

Hi,
It's OK to leave it in common/lib. (IMHO it's also fine to have a copy
for each webapp in WEB-INF/lib, but you stated you don't want that).

Subject: Common/lib works shared/lib doesn't
I need some help trying to get a shared jar to work in shared/lib. I've
searched the archives and found many posts with this issue but no fix.
Win2k
Tomcat 4.1.30
JDK 1.42_03
My webapps are based on a framework I developed that is contained
within
one jar. Up until now I have included this jar with every webapp where
it resides in WEB-INF/lib. This works fine but is a pain to support
because every change to the framework needs to be pushed to all apps. I
would like to share this jar so only one update for all apps is
necessary. When moving the jar to shared/lib I get a runtime CNFE on
the
Login.jsp. The class that can't be found is part of the jar that now
resides in shared/lib. Initially I did not have CATALINA_BASE set. I
played around with setting CATALINA_BASE and adding the jar to the
classpath but nothing seems to work. I then moved the jar to common/lib
and the app worked. Tomcat documentation clearly states that shared
application code should reside in shared/lib not in common/lib.
Should I try to resolve the shared/lib issue or is it OK to leave the
jar in common/lib ?
Thanks,
Marc Wangenheim
