/*lets create a jsp page which will call into that jar..*/
<%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=windows-1252"

later on in the index.jsp attempt to use the log
line 42 onMouseUp="<%log.debug("From index.jsp StringToEncrypt=");
An error occurred at line: 42 in the jsp file: /index.jsp
Generated servlet error:
log cannot be resolved (but commons-logging.jar IS located in
%CATALINA_HOME%\common\lib) so why did'nt the classloader find it?
lets re-enable commons-logging
%CATALINA_HOME%\webapps\EncryptView\WEB-INF\lib>ren *.jar.old *.jar
commons-logging.jar is now enables in
%CATALINA_HOME%\webapps\EncryptView\WEB-INF\lib
so commons-logging.jar in %CATALINA_HOME%\common\lib was completely missed
by the classloader but demand-loaded when placed in webappName\WEB-INF\lib
Is there a misconfig that I dont know about?
Environment:
TOMCAT 5.5.17
java version "1.5.0_02"

Although the reference given is quite appropriate, the statements
preceding it are incorrect.
The common/lib location is not for Tomcat internal use; it provides a
location for classes that must be visible to *both* Tomcat and webapps,
such as the servlet API interfaces and JDBC drivers for connection
pooling.
And, of course, all classes are "demand loaded" on first reference,
regardless of location.
Placing application-specific classes in WEB-INF/lib is certainly the
right thing to do, since that contributes to webapp independence.
