Yes i have already done this, no help, could it be that the eclipse
tomcat plugin is setting its own classpath somewhere? I have added
the jar to window -> preferances -> java -> classpath. but maybe i am
missing somthing else. It just seems that the ./startup.sh script in
the tomcat directory does not have any effect when i make changes to
it.
