Tomcat 5, Velocity and XML Parser issues
Hi,
I just experienced a problem with Velocity and Tomcat 5.0.19. I use Velocity 1.3, Velocity Tools 1.0, Struts 1.1 and Tomcat 5.0.19.
When starting my Web-App I got the following error:
2004-04-05 16:18:02 StandardContext[/Echnaton] Velocity [info] Velocity successfully started.
2004-04-05 16:18:02 StandardContext[/Echnaton] Velocity [info] Using toolbox configuration file '/WEB-INF/toolbox.xml'

On the Velocity-user mailinglist I was told to copy the dom4j.jar file into $CATALINA_HOME/common/endorsed and that solved the problem. So far (Tomcat 4.x) I put the dom4j.jar into the lib directory of the WEB-INF of my web app.
Could anybody please explain me what this endorsed directory is all about? Which libraries do I need to put where and why is it NOT possible to put libraries such as dom4j.jar into my Web-Application. Or is there anything I am doing wrong when deploying my web app to Tomcat 5?
Any clarification, additional documentation etc is greatly appreciated.
Tom

Hi, I am a bit more experienced than and working with the same issues. Yet
can point u some thing I know.
u need to specify the context (container, if not the same as
install_dir/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes) in server.xml in the server.xml
file in conf folder inside the install_dir. For me , the install dir. is ::
D:\tomcat\4.1.29\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.29\, and it is on windows platform.
Also, u need to specify for a servlet the URL of the servlets, sevlet name
in the deployment descriptor file ( basically the configuration file for ur
web application), i.e. web.xml inside the folder's root dir.
You can go through this link too: http://cymulacrum.net
Any further queries u can post to me directly too at my email id:
