Starting up Catalina

[Martin Mauri <mm...@profesi.com.ar>]

Hi users,

I'm facing the following problem trying to start up Catalina 4.0.1

I cannot add extra libreries ".jar" files to the server because they aren't
added to the run CLASSPATH, however in the earlier versions of TOMCAT, the
script added all the jars in the lib directory to the run classpath...ok, am
I missing something?? can anybody tell me if I have to copy+paste the
startap script of earlier versions or just modify another thing??

thanks in adcane.

Martin

Tomcat 4.0.1 also makes all the JAR files in the "lib" directory available
to web applications, but does so in a manner that does not use the
CLASSPATH environment variable.  There are too many platform-specific
problems (especially on Windows) to make CLASSPATH use safe.

For information on how Tomcat 4 makes classes available to various class
loaders, see the included documentation, or look online:
