Even the patch doesn't fix my problem. I guess I have not explained my problem clearly. To be clear, I do not have my context outside ${TOMCAT_HOME}/webapps. But ${TOMCAT_HOME}/webapps/stuff/WEB-INF/classes directory is a symbolic link. My problem is, the classes underneath this symbolic link are not getting loaded. Tomcat simply spews out ClassNotFoundException while trying to deploy my servlet context. So the question is should I be updating server.xml(which I tried unsuccessfully) or is there a way to use allowLinking="true" in web.xml?
Thanks very much for the help,
Ganesh.
