Not sure if you can have your JSPs/servlets outside of the Tomcat contexts structure. I think Tomcat, actually I think Servlet spec 2.3, expects a certain directory tree to be in place. So, it will look in the application context WEB-INF/lib directory, then up the tree to the shared/lib directory and then up the tree to the common/lib directory for jar files.
Someone, please correct me if I'm wrong here. Why don't you just replicate your application structure within Tomcat's context structure (i.e., tomcat/webapps/appname. That's basically the standard. ----- Original Message ----- From: Nathan Aaron <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thursday, January 27, 2005 12:58 pm Subject: Re: Oracle JDBC > Already tried it.
