I've been reading the HOWTO that you cited and I'm getting a bit confused;
it seems to contradict both itself and you! According to the Quick Start
section, JAR files containing resource which are to be shared across all web
applications are to be placed in $CATALINA_HOME/shared/lib. Later, in the
detailed description of the class loaders, it says that JAR resources which
need to be shared across all web applications (except Tomcat itself) should
be put in $CATALINA_HOME/lib, not shared/lib.
Which is exactly what the ClassLoader HOWTO says.
All webapps PLUS Tomcat itself: $CATALINA_HOME/shared/lib All webapps BUT NOT Tomcat itself: $CATALINA_HOME/lib
I suggest you step back, rethink things, and take Yoav's advice.
