about CLASSPATH: system or tomcat trick ?

[Fabrice Terrasson]

I added the path /usr/java/xerces-1_4_2/xerces.jar in CLASSPATH of
tomcat.sh
but it crashes tomcat

I removed xerces.jar from CLASSPATH in tomcat.sh and putted it in the my
user profile file : ~/.bashrc
and ~/.profile
but now tomcat works well

got a clue ?
any help will be appreciated.
