Hi everybody,
Im driving mad with a classpath issue : My environment : - Tomcat 6.0.29 - Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard 64 bits - JDK 1.5.0_22 My webapp is using Waffle (Windows Authentication Framework) (http://waffle.codeplex.com/) to benefit from transparent authentication. It is working just fine when tomcat is started in console mode. But console mode is not suitable for production use. Therefore, I set-up Tomcat 6 as a service (http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/windows-service-howto.html). In this mode, tomcat does not start properly and I get a classpath error : java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/catalina/authenticator/AuthenticatorBase If not using Waffle, the service mode is working fine as well. AuthenticatorBase is used by Waffle. I found that this class is located catalina.jar. Catalina.jar is located in D:\tomcat\lib\ (catalina.home\lib). So, I do have the right jar and it contains the right class (which again is found by tomcat when started in console mode). My guess was I had a service configuration error : I checked everything and cant find any error which does not mean there is no error ! ;-) Here is the service configuration logged by tomcat : Jvm Option[0] -Djava.class.path=D:\tomcat\bin\tomcat-juli.jar;D:\tomcat\bin\bootstrap.jar; D:\tomcat\lib\annotations-api.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\catalina-ant.jar;D:\tomcat\l ib\catalina-ha.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\catalina-tribes.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\catalina. jar;D:\tomcat\lib\el-api.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\jasper-el.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\jaspe r-jdt.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\jasper.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\jsp-api.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\s ervlet-api.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\tomcat-coyote.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\tomcat-dbcp.jar ;D:\tomcat\lib\tomcat-i18n-es.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\tomcat-i18n-fr.jar;D:\tomcat \lib\tomcat-i18n-ja.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\jna.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\platform.jar;D:\ tomcat\lib\waffle-jna.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\commons-logging-1.1.1.jar Jvm Option[1] -Dcatalina.home=D:\tomcat Jvm Option[2] -Dcatalina.base=D:\tomcat\instances\06_crlj Jvm Option[3] -Djava.endorsed.dirs=D:\tomcat\endorsed Jvm Option[4] -Djava.io.tmpdir=D:\tomcat\instances\06_crlj\temp Jvm Option[5] -Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager Jvm Option[6] -Djava.util.logging.config.file=D:\tomcat\instances\06_crlj\conf\logging.pro perties Jvm Option[7] -XX:MaxPermSize=256M Jvm Option[8] -Djava.class.path=D:\tomcat\bin\tomcat-juli.jar;D:\tomcat\bin\bootstrap.jar; D:\tomcat\lib\annotations-api.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\catalina-ant.jar;D:\tomcat\l ib\catalina-ha.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\catalina-tribes.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\catalina. jar;D:\tomcat\lib\el-api.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\jasper-el.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\jaspe r-jdt.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\jasper.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\jsp-api.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\s ervlet-api.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\tomcat-coyote.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\tomcat-dbcp.jar ;D:\tomcat\lib\tomcat-i18n-es.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\tomcat-i18n-fr.jar;D:\tomcat \lib\tomcat-i18n-ja.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\jna.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\platform.jar;D:\ tomcat\lib\waffle-jna.jar;D:\tomcat\lib\commons-logging-1.1.1.jar Jvm Option[9] vfprintf Jvm Option[10] -Xms256m Jvm Option[11] -Xmx512m As you can see : java.class.path do include catalina.jar. I tried copying around catalina.jar and waffle libs around (lib dirs., endorsed dirs., etc.), but no luck. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
