I think the most appropriate directory for a module is "tomcat/lib/container", which is where most of the module classes live. A second possibility is "tomcat/lib/common". "tomcat/lib" won't work, even after adding your class to the classpath manually, because it can't see the BaseInterceptor class in "tomcat/lib/common". For details of the classloader hierarchy, see:
