Hi Charles,
Thanks for your reply.
We have followed the same procedure to deploy the application in Tomcat 5.5
as we did in Tomcat 4.X. The application worked properly in Tomcat 4.X i.e.
The application jar was in the classpath as set in the
TOMCAT/bin/setclasspath.sh.
Here's the entry in server.xml pointing to the appBase:
<Host name="localhost"
appBase="/home/redhot/redhot1.25/redhotdata/web"
unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true"
xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false">
Also, I have added the jar in <TOMCAT_HOME>/bin/setclasspath.sh.
What's the alternative way to deploy the application as a jar file in
Tomcat?
Thanks & regards,
Rajendra

Not possible; appBase defines where the default webapps directory. Do
you mean docBase?

A fatal error. To repeat: never, never put things on Tomcat's
classpath. Do not use the CLASSPATH variable under any circumstances,
and do not add webapp jars to the command line -cp parameter.
Tomcat has a well-defined and well-documented classloader mechanism; use
it:
