JAn, Wouldn't you want the commons-digester to go into %tomcat_home%\shared\lib so it could be used by everything? And why do you need a shared struts? Can you get away with changing each context to have the parameter crossContext=true allowing you to get to that context from another webapp, as described in the Tomcat 5 docs here: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/config/context.html under "Common Attributes"?

According to ClassLoader-How-To ClassLoader hierachy looks something like this: Bootstrap | System | Common / \ Catalina Shared / \ Webapp1 Webapp2 ... Which would explain why digester can't "see" catalina-classes, thing is it shouldnt see those web-app classloader either. Anyone got some kind of shared struts working?
