In my instance I think it is important to note I am using the
RMISecurityManager.
If I have say 2 jars in the WEB-INF/lib directory called myapp.jar and
my3rdparty.jar. I can access servlets in myapp.jar (so I know that the jars
must be added to the classpath in some instance) however (usually while
making EJB calls) I get classnotfound exception while accessing classes in
my3rdparty.jar. If I add it to the tomcat classpath it works, if I remove
it again it doesn't work.
I am using 3.2.1 and will try the other version when I get a chance but
without knowing the Tomcats dynamic classpath indepth I am at a loss.
Is it possible that the RMISecurityManager is not using the classloader (or
whatever it is that dynamically creates the webapp classpath) so if a RMI
call requires a class it can only find it in the main classpath?
Thanks for the replies.
Richard.

Subject: Re: WEB-INF/lib vs. TOMCAT_HOME/lib
Hello,
i have set the properity jar files in the webapps/.../WEB-INF/lib/ dir,
and this works fine (i haven't change any configuration for it).
I use the Version 3.2.2b2 (perhaps that's important ?)
Greetings,
Michael
