Unlikely, it's about business logic. The custom classloader uses some custom config file to maintain additional JARs for the classloader based on a custom feature system enabling/disabling things. For the time being that classloader is needed, but the interesting question is where the JAR file is stored and where the classloader is actually enabled/used. If it really needs to be in some Tomcat server side config or can be placed into a webapp. > That should have worked and is the approach I'd recommend.

Need to try again at some later time not that I know it's the correct approach at all in theory. > common.loader=[...],"${catalina.base}/lib_custom/*.jar" > common.loader=[...],"${catalina.home}/lib_custom/*.jar" > common.loader=[...],"${catalina.base}/lib_custom/custom.jar" > common.loader=[...],"${catalina.home}/lib_custom/custom.jar" > No. Tomcat needs to be able to load the custom class loader in order to > configure it. Just to be sure: I don't necessarily need Tomcat-level classloader, but webapp-specific might be sufficient. But on that level there's no way to use a custom classloader or is there? I'm e.g. using Axis2 as a webapp in Tomcat and that does support a custom classloader. But that is simply because it does so on its own, have nothign to do with Servlet standards?
