JavaMail + Tomcat

[Ma...@derivativefitch.com]

Hi,

Regarding JavaMail:
Is it possible to put the mail.jar (and activation.jar) in the web 
application's WEB-INF/lib folder instead of tomcat's common/lib?

I did have it working in common/lib but then moved it to 
[web-app]/WEB-INF/lib - due to requirements - and I now get the following 
error:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/mail/Session

on the line: 
session = (Session) envCtx.lookup("mail/Session");

The web.xml looks like this - I have also tried putting the mail.jar and 
activation.jar on the projects classpath.

<resource-ref>
<res-ref-name>mail/Session</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.mail.Session</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>

Thanks,

Matt

If you want to get javax.mail.Session reference using JNDI you have to 
put those jars in common/lib.
You can have them in WEB-INF/lib if you will create mail Sessions object 
by hand.

I have two or three web applications that use JavaMail.  I develop on a
Macintosh then drop the WAR files on Tomcat running on a Red Hat Linux
system.  In each case it was sufficient to put the JAR files in
WEB-INF/lib.  My web.xml files do not contain any <resource-ref> tags.
