Hi all, does Tomcat really look into tomcatdir/server/lib? For me it seems Tomcat doesn't.
On the one hand the original webapp /webdav runs without errors. On the other hand, when I deploy a class that extends the original webdav-class org.apache.catalina.servlets.WebdavServlet (located in catalinahome\server\lib\servlets-webdav.jar) I get an java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/catalina/servlets/WebdavServlet. When I then copy catalinahome\server\lib\servlets-webdav.jar into catalinahome\webapps\mywebdav\WEB-INF\lib I get a different java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/catalina/servlets/DefaultServlet. DefaultServlet is located in catalinahome\server\lib\servlets-default.jar. So it seems Tomcat doesn't look into the catalinahome\server\lib\ directory. But why then runs the original /webdav app? What do I do wrong? Do I have to tell Tomcat somehow to look into the catalinahome\server\lib\ directory when running my webapp? Or do I have to copy all needed files from catalinahome\server\lib\ to my webapp's lib-directory? I suppose this shouldn't be the solution. By the way: I'm running Tomcat 4.0.4 on Windows 2000. Thanks a lot in advance.
