package doesn't exist exception

[Mandar Velankar]

Hi,
I am using Tomcat 5.0.16 at my office.
I added new jar file poi-2.0-final-20040126.jar into WEB-INF/lib of my web application & restarted tomcat. But when I use import statement to include package in jsp page , it throws package doesn't exist exception.I also set classpath to above jar file, but still it throws exception.Where is problem?
Thanks a lot.Waiting for your replies.

Try putting a copy of this jar in commons/lib also.

thanks raghu ,

I find out my mistake , I extracted all class files within jar file into

WEB-INF/classes dir , and I got package structure , i am importing wrong

package which doesn't exist , actually I done so according to docs

available, but anyhow I got correct package structure. It is working fine.

Thanks.
