Where is Tomcat endorsed directory?

If you are haunted by this question, then for Tomcat 5.x, the folder is tomcat/common/endorsed. For Tomcat 6.x, create a endorsed directory under tomcat. tomcat is basically where the CATALINA_HOME is pointing to.

Under endorsed dir, you should have the following jars (and any other jars needed):

asaldhana~/apache-tomcat-6.0.16/endorsed>ls
resolver.jar  serializer.jar  xalan.jar  xercesImpl.jar  xml-apis.jar
