Filter Not Found in new deployment

[Allen Williams]

I have a development machine that everything works find on, and I'm trying to deploy to a production machine, and for some reason it's not finding my filter. The fact that it *knows* about the filter indicates (well, at least, I think it indicates) that it found the web app and associated directories. The public URL is http://www.infoisland.net, which points to /var/www/infoisland in the file system.

On the apache side, here's the apache host entry:

NameVirtualHost *:80

and here's the mod_jk configuration:

On the tomcat side, here's the server.xml section:

<Host name="www.infoisland.net" appBase="/var/www"
       unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true"
       xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false">
<Context path="/infoisland" debug="255"
         docBase="infoisland"
 crossContext="true"
         reloadable="true">
            <Manager className="org.apache.catalina.session.PersistentManager"
        debug="255" saveOnRestart="false">
    </Manager>
 
             <Resource name="jdbc/infoisland" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"
               maxActive="20" maxIdle="5" maxWait="10000" username="anw"
       password="anw111" driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
       url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/smsinfo?autoReconnect=true"/>
        </Context>
 
      </Host>

And, on the app side, here's the web.xml entry for the filter:

  <!-- Filters Here -->
  <filter>
    <filter-name>CheckUser</filter-name>
    <filter-class>infoIsland.CheckUser</filter-class>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>loginPage</param-name>
      <param-value>/login.jsp</param-value>
    </init-param>
  </filter>
 
  <filter-mapping>
    <filter-name>CheckUser</filter-name>
    <url-pattern>/members/*</url-pattern>
  </filter-mapping>

and here's the directory listing of the WEB-INF/classes directory (directly under the /var/www/infoisland directory):

total 24
drwxr-xr-- 6 anw  anw  4096 2007-02-03 13:54 ./

and here is the WEB-INF/classes/infoisland listing, showing the CheckUser class:

And, lastly, here is the output of tomcat, throwing an exception because it can't find CheckUser:

I have also tried putting a infoisland.jar file in the WEB-INF/lib directory, with exactly the same results.

TIA,
