hi :-)

- when this error occur? during compilation of your java or when tomcat is already running?
- have you tried to put your commons-logging.jar to your apps web folder?
YourApp\WEB-INF\lib
- then try to reconfigure again your classpath :-)

regards,

Should work ok. Are you sure you have the commons-logging.jar in the $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib directory? Make sure that you haven't accidentally put it under $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib/commons-logging-1.0.4/. You should really place this jar under $CATALINA_BASE/shared/lib if you want tto share it across all your web applications since there is no need to make it visible to tomcats internal classes (although the common/lib directory should work ok)

Tomcat ignores classpath

I have followed both of you people suggestion but still doesn'
t work!!
I had put my commons-logging-1.0.4.jar under Tomcat\shared\lib and remove that jar file from Tomcat\common\lib .
i put the same under myApp\WEB-INF\lib directory as well.
it throws the compile time error always!!

this is my part of java code:

import org.apache.commons.logging.Log; 
import org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory; 
import org.apache.log4j.PropertyConfigurator;

	public Operation() 
	{
		log = LogFactory.getLog(Operation.class); 

		//Setting the properties for logging
		String userDir = System.getProperty("user.dir");
		String configPropertiesFile = userDir+"/Operation.properties";
		//System.out.println("configPropertiesFile   "+configPropertiesFile);
		PropertyConfigurator.configure(configPropertiesFile);
	}

hi :-)

it throws the compile time error always!!
there something wrong with your classpath when you compile your program.
can you show us how you compile your java program or your classpath.

regards,

Oops! I fotgot to set the classpath contains commons-logging-1.0.4.jar
on Enviornment variables CLASS_PATH value.
Thnks a lot
venki

Yes because where you put the jar files under tomcat is completely irrelevant with regard to compiling your code ...
