Hello all,
I was wondering whether any of you could help me out with a problem I'm
having. I'm getting a java.lang.ClassNotFoundException when trying to run a
jsp application. The class file exists and is under:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat
6.0\work\Catalina\localhost\HelloWorld\org\apache\jsp
But it looks like Tomcat isn't finding it. I'm getting other exceptions too
(all of them are below):
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable
to load class for JSP

When I installed tomcat I didn't set any CATALINA_HOME variable. Was I
supposed to do this?
I also can't find the log entries for this error. I've looked under the
logs directory of the Tomcat installation but there are only logs from
previous days.
Thank you for all of your help.
John
