Not reading the documentation.

Both Tomcat 3.3 and 4.0 have implemented a different philosophy about how
to deal with shared JAR files -- they must go in a particular directory,
and the user's CLASSPATH variable is totally ignored at startup time
(which is a very good thing -- CLASSPATH caused way too much grief for
Tomcat 3.2 users).  I don't know where the 3.3 docs are about this, but in
4.0 they are at:

  http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/class-loader-howto.html
