Re: Using links to JAR files in WEB-INF/lib directory throws exceptions

Florian,

I do have the same problem with the documentation.

On an 'out-of-the-box' installation of the latest tomcat4 package
(unstable), it's impossible to see the servlet/jsp api documentation.

http://localhost:8180/tomcat-docs/servletapi/index.html

But if you 'hard' copy the documentation, it works... Tomcat does not
 like symlinks :-(
