Hi,

I have inherited a project from someone (who is no longer around). I am also fairly new to web-applications. While trying to become familiar with tomcat 5.5 and the application that I inherited, I learned that the previous developer copied everything in "server/lib" to "common/lib." I also learned that the application did not function properly unless I did the same (error: NoClassDefFoundError: org/ apache/catalina/realm/RealmBase). When reading the documentation on the tomcat 5.5 class loader page (http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/class-loader-howto.html ), I learned that everything in "server/lib" is meant for Tomcat (and only Tomcat -- I think). Can anyone straighten me out? Why would he copy these jars over? And if the application is dependent on them, I would imagine other people's application would be too, but the jars are not available to the applications.

Any advice is appreciated.
