Description Sebastian Sch 2002-09-26 11:13:40 UTC 
I have got problems compinling my jsp-pages because of a classdef not found
exception. If I deploy the web-application with ant (tomcat-ant-task, which uses
the tomcat management interface) it seems to me the jar files in WEB-INF/lib are
not used. Please note, the document-root is not located under the tomcat webapps
directory but elsewhere on my machine.

If I copy the jar files from my WEB-INF/lib directory to tomcats common/lib
everything works fine.

If I just copy the ant-build directory (containing my jsps, the WEB-INF dir...)
to the tomcat webapps directory everything works fine too.

So it seems to me there is a problem using jar-files that are located outside
the tomcat webapp-directory.
