Thanks here it is:

Hello -

I'm on Mac OS X, using Tomcat 7. I can see the JAR libraries in the {webapp}/WEB-INF/lib directory fine

However I am still getting the cursed java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError

Even if I then manual delete the .jar file the error remains with same stacktrace so to my mind it appears the classloaders are not kicking in correctly?

Can anyone please point me in the correct direction.

Many thanks

I am seriously hacked off with the inability of people to document properly and not leave off the most important facts. I am trying to get two Apache products (Tomcat and web server) to talk and be nice together on Win2003. I know and understand the process totally but I will bet anyone my pension that they can not find the correct .dll binary on the official Apache/Jakarta site.

http://www.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-connectors/jk/binaries/win32/jk-1.2.23/

does NOT give a .dll download only .so files. Never mind the fact that one would have thought that there would be a webserver AND jsp container rolled into one and pre-configured by now: click to download and install for your OS. No wonder people are shunning JSP technology in favour of easier architectures. My clients do not pay me to set up the architecture, they pay me to code and produce working solutions to their problems. The amount of time I have spent on getting BASIC architecture to work on JSP/J2EE is a joke. I could have completed the project in PHP and be sitting on the beach by now.

Can someone PLEASE TELL ME WHERE TO GET THIS **&^^%$ DLL FILE FROM!!
Much appreciated,
H.A.
