Check your environment variables. CATALINA_HOME c:\tomcat or wherever you installed tomcat Seem you have this set properly
CLASSPATH c:\j2sdk1.4.2_03;c:\tomcat\common\lib\servlet-api.jar;c:\tomcat\common\lib\j sp-api.jar;c:\tomcat\common\lib\tools.jar;. There are different ways to do this but it seems like you need to have The servlet-api/jar in your CLASSPATH variable. Mine is in c:\tomcat\common\lib JAVA_HOME c:\j2sdk1.4.2_03 or wherever you installed the jdk PATH C:\Perl\bin\;C:\j2sdk1.4.2_03\bin\..... Be sure to have the bin directory under your jdk installation included. -----Original Message----- From: Venkat & Radha Venkataramanan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 30, 2004 7:09 AM To: 'Tomcat Users List' Subject: Question from a newbie!
