Hallo,
I am using a commercial application which now has a servlet interface in its latest version (Tivoli Framework 4.1). The installation guide offers step-by-step instructions for IBM websphere and Tomcat (no version number recommended, so I chose the latest 4.1.18 for Win2k). I have to admit in advance that I absolutely know nothing about java application servers, so please be gentle with me if it should be a bloody beginner's problem ;)
I managed to follow the Tomcat instructions, switched on SSL, imported the certificate that came with Tivoli, and when I finally pointed my browser to the login page, I always receive the error message "cannot login" (in cryptic IBM speak).
The installation instructions require copying some additional files jcf.jar, jlog.jar, jsafe.zip to <tomcat-home>/lib. This directory does not exist for Tomcat 4, so I copied to <tomcat-home>/shared/lib instead (and to server/lib, common/lib, and TivoliFRW/WEB-INF/lib in subsequent tries).
I always get the trace message java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: COM/rsa/jsafe/JSAFE_SecureRandom in the tivoli logfile. This class file does exist in jsafe.zip, verified with unzip -l!
I even tried to put the three archives in CLASSPATH of Tomcat startup.sh, but to no avail.
The IBM support only told me "it runs for me with Tomcat 3.2.4, and I have a <tomcat-home>/lib directory". The following answers from support were even stranger, suggesting to me that I should put some links from /usr/lpp to <tomcat-home> (I did report the W2k OS ;)) !).
Could you please make some suggestions what could be wrong with my installation? The /admin and /manager applications, as well as some others I tried for curiosity, work well (e.g. database organizer from sourceforge).
Tschau...Thomas
