Hi guys,
i am having problems getting my fedora 13 system to recognise my apache tomcat lib which contains lots of jar files needed to compile servlets and jsp based java programs; i have set the classpath env variable : ## export CLASSPATH
export CLASSPATH="/usr/local/apache-tomcat-6.0.16/lib"
in etc/profile and ~.bash_profile file but still i get package javax.servlet.jsp does not exist. On windows i dont seem to have this problem after setting the classpath. I also have these included in etc/profile and ~.bash_profile:
## export JAVA_HOME
export JAVA_HOME="/usr/java/jdk1.6.0_21"

## export CATALINA_HOME
export CATALINA_HOME="/usr/local/apache-tomcat-6.0.16"

i'll be glad if you guys can give me a helping hand.

Linux's variables are different than M$'s. As such, here's the variable you have to set:

Please let me know if you're still getting errors.

Hi Kenny,
I simply cut and paste this: export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/apache-tomcat-6.0.16/lib:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH into my etc/profile and ~/.bash_profile and still i get the same error messages like package javax.faces.model does not exist
import javax.faces.model.SelectItem; but if i specify the jar file with -cp on the command line it compiles; i have a total of 33 jar files in the lib folder and it will be cumbersome having to specify ever individual jar file on the command line every time i want to compile a java file. Hope to hear from you soon.
Regards Yomi
