Why it could not find it? Where is it in your standard.jar? I do not believe the Digester looks at META-INF/ and checked for contents like these c.tld in that directory. Off hand I do not remember what functionality META-INF/ is for other than this is where you have a MANIFEST.MF file, the index file for the jars your webapp uses, and stash your context.xml file. Maybe listing it in MANIFEST.MF makes it "available" ?
