I believe the documentation in the conf/web.xml is incorrect about the "classpath" init parameter. I believe this init parameter has no effect. Instead, the RELEASE-NOTES-4.0.1.txt file says modify the catalina.sh/catalina.bat file to add rt.jar to the CLASSPATH. See the "Jasper and Jikes" section.
