Thanks, switching to a ServletContextListener resolved the problem. Pid <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Mike Peremsky wrote: > If it helps at all I am running on Windows XP.
If it's in the webapp directory, that explains it. It's not in the same classloader. You probably want ServletContextListener, rather than a LifecycleListener. The latter is a Tomcat interface, rather than a Servlet spec definition - which would be more useful to you. Lifecycle is server related as opposed to application. You'll need to add a attribute to your web.xml to make it work. p > Mike Peremsky wrote: > > > Pid wrote: Rashmi Rubdi wrote: >> Hi Mike, >> >> Someone has posted a solution to the new error you're getting: >> http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/tomcat-users/200512.mbox/[EMAIL >> PROTECTED] >> >> >> their solution was under: >> >> 6.
