Description Vijay Phadke 2002-02-14 05:38:19 UTC 
I have a running application on Tomcat 4.0.1 that has xalan.jar in webapp's WEB-
INF/lib and nowhere else. The application runs fine.
After updating to Tomcat 4.0.2, the application gives an error that it can't 
find the classes from xalan.jar. If I move the xalan.jar to CATALINA_HOME/lib, 
the application works again!
It appears that the webapps classloader is not finding the classes under 
webapp's WEB-INF/lib directory.
