This has changed recently, but that change is not yet in a release:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-335 The default search locations, in order of priority, are defined in the manual: http://guacamole.incubator.apache.org/doc/gug/configuring-guacamole.html#guacamole-home The easiest option is to simply create a ".guacamole" directory within the home directory of the tomcat user. Which user that actually is will depend on how you've installed Tomcat, but assuming you installed Tomcat via your distribution's packages, there will likely be a user defined specifically for that service, and the home directory will be visible within /etc/passwd. Once you believe you have your extension in the right location, be sure to check the Tomcat logs if things still aren't working. Guacamole will log its attempts to load extensions, including any failures due to the extension not following the correct format. If those messages don't provide enough information, you can also enable debug-level logging: http://guacamole.incubator.apache.org/doc/gug/configuring-guacamole.html#webapp-logging - Mike
