I've searched the forums and seen this question asked, but there doesn't seem to be an answer to it. I deployed a webapp of mine to
tomcat 5.5 as a .war file. The deployment works and I can call jsps. I try to call a
servlet which uses a .jar file which is in my application's /WEB-INF/lib/ directory.
I get a NoClassDefFoundError for a class that the servlet tries to call. However, if I add my .jar file to $tomcat-home/common/lib everything works fine. I can't imagine I would need to add all my .jar files to the common/lib to get them to work. Please let me know what I need to do to have the files in my own application's \WEB-INF\lib directory to be seen.
Thanks in advance.
