Hello
First of all thank you for your answer. The owner of tomcat it's my
user, but the problem is that my system doesn't have the group (or user)
tomcat. I tried to launch tomcat as root (just as a test) moving the
folder to the same place as the .class is, and later the same moving the
folder to webapps/service/WEB-INF/lib folder... but nothing worked...
any other idea? I'll keep on trying.
Thank you!!

If my quick read of your problem is correct, (only works when run from
command line) then I would venture to say that you may have a rights
issue. Who owns the app? By default Tomcat starts from the scripts as
owner tomcat where as from the command line it is running as you (root
or some admin level). Try chown and chgrp the app to tomcat and see if
that helps.
No even moving it into the folder does not give Tomcat the rights to
access it. You could also change the access rights but I would be
careful there as letting anyone execute code is not a good thing, but
chgrp to tomcat and group executable would work. Just make sure you
understand what the implications of the changes you make are, even on
ownership and group membership.

Subject: Noob needs help with a webservice wich uses resources located
in a folder
Hi
I'm quite noob about tomcat topic. I'm using tomcat 5.028 in Ubuntu
6.10 and I would like to find an anwer to my question about web
services because i'm not able to solve it. I've written a java
applicattion wich uses a wrapper to communicate with an applicattion
written in C, wich is the "core" of my applicattion. Both the wrapper
and the core are third party applicattions, and because of that i
don't have the source code, I just have the API.
The third party sent me an example application wich uses the core.
And, as I could see in the script wich lauches the application, this
folder should be added to the classpath in order to be able to be
located by the wrapper applicattion. The documentation of the wrapper
just says that this folder has to exist with an specific name.
My problem is that my applicattion works fine launched from shell (it
founds the folder and uses the core perfectly) but it doesn't work as
a webservice. It is not able to find the resource folder (let's call
it "cfg"). As I can see in the catalina log, the application tries to
load the resources (via ClassLoader I guess) and then launches an
exception saying that is not able to find it. The client gets a
HTTPErrorCode0.
I've tried a lot of ways to solve it: I tried to launch tomcat with
the classpath modified from the shell itself(making it point to the
folder), tried to export the classpath from startup.sh script, tried
to export the classpath from catalina.sh script, tried to modify the
CATALINA_OPTS variable, tried to put the folder in both lib and
classes folders of the webservice folder... but nothing worked.
Please.. could you help me to solve this problem? I think I've tried
all the options that came to my mind (except declaring a resource in
server.xml file, altought I don't know If this wrapper uses JNDI to
access to the resource..).I hope I explained myself well. As I think
you can see, I'm quite noob with tomcat, so please don't be so hard
with your answers... :'-p
Thank you very much!
