Annoying problem when using new jar files

Hi,

This is my very first message for this tomcat users' list, so sorry for every mistakes I am going to make.

I have apache+tomcat 4 installed on debian, and everything was working fine untill I tried to add a new .jar file. I have added new jar files before and everything has always worked fine.

I don't understand why this time is different.

The thing is that when I add the new jar file to the classpath and I restart tomcat, nothing fails; but when I try to execute the jsp, I get this error:

Generated servlet error:
  [javac] Since fork is true, ignoring compiler setting.
  [javac] Compiling 1 source file
  [javac] Since fork is true, ignoring compiler setting.
  [javac] /opt/tomcat/work/Standalone/localhost/_/4.0/index_jsp.java:10: package XXXXXX does not exist
  [javac] import XXXXXX .*;

When I take a look at catalina.out I find this:

Compile failed; see the compiler error output for details.

The problem is not so annoying so far, but I guess you all see when I say this: I have tried with another test.jar file and test.jsp and nothing fails!!!

Why this test.jar works and the other one I want to work doesn't?

I have tried to use this .jar file with the resin (another jsp server) and it also fails, may it be that the jar file is corrupted? I have created the jar file in two different computers and both fail. I have read the documentation about tomcat 4.1 and apache, but I have found nothing useful.

I have thought about installing the new tomcat 5 but if the test.jar works it means tomcat 4 is working fine, or not?

Can anybody help me with this?

Thanks in advance, sorry for my rusty english.
