Thats the directory that the binary download extracted into. It contains subdirectories src, doc, debug, and other stuff like README, as well as the .jar file. I had the directory originally in webapps/examples/WEB-INF/lib,and copied the .jar file to its present location in /apache-tomcat-6.0.14/lib. I decided to move the mysql-connector-java-5.0.8 directory to /apache-tomcat-6.0.14/lib also, in case some of those files were needed.
