Remember that your classpath in your environment which is used by the java
compiler when you issue a compile command from the command line is not the
same classpath that Tomcat uses when it is running.
Move the JAR into $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib. I don't believe that Tomcat
supports loading JAR files from $JRE_HOME/jre/lib/ext.
