No. Setting the CLASSPATH on the command-line doesn't do anything for Tomcat.

As a last-ditch effort, try putting your JAR file into the JVM's "endorsed" directory and see if that works. | Any ideas left that do not include the words "Tomcat sources" and "modify"? :D Yeah... always a scary proposition. | I still can't quite believe how a trivial operation such as constructing a | java.net.URL from a wellformed (!) URL can cause so much trouble in a Servlet | based environment. I must be missing something. I never knew it was this bad. I completely agree that creating a well-formed URL with an unknown protocol should be allowed. Oh, well. Okay, for my final trick, I have one last idea for you. If nothing else works, try this: Change all notes:// URLs into http:// URLs and pass them around, etc. When you're ready to display them on the screen, change the leading "http://"; to "notes://". Okay, now I really /am/ all out of ideas.
