Works for me.  I was just looking for the explanation.  I'll give it a
go with 5.0.25 but I trust you on this one.  :)

Hi,
shared/lib works on tomcat 5.0.25.  It's trivial to test and verify for
yourself.

The user reported this on 4.1.30, which is in maintenance mode where
only showstopper and security bugs would be fixed, and further an OK
workaround (using common/lib) exists.  I didn't even try to confirm or
reject his claim on 4.1.30, because of the above reasons, just answered
his question of whether it's OK to use common/lib or not.

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
