What is special about mail.jar (and activation.jar) that requires putting them into the common.loader?
Quote from the Tomcat docs: Unpackage the distribution(s) and place mail.jar (and activation.jar if required) into $CATALINA_HOME/lib so the JAR(s) is(are) available to Tomcat during the initialization of the mail Session Resource. http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/jndi-resources-howto.html This question is spawned by a recent thread on the Ant mailing list, where the same question was raised in the context of classloading issues, but not answered. Mail task with mail.jar & activation.jar out of lib folder http://ant.markmail.org/thread/ojjm7g5otejua33i Thanks. -- Michael Ludwig --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
