Examples of Good
and Problematic
CLASSPATH Settings
If you modify your classpath and do not include the 3Com directories (and possibly if you do not list them before any other directories in your classpath), the Web Management components may fail to run properly.
In Windows 95, your CLASSPATH is set in the autoexec.bat file. It usually appears in this format:
SET CLASSPATH=C:\3Com;
In Windows NT, your CLASSPATH is set through the System icon in the Control Panel. Ask your system administrator if you do not know how to change your environment variables.
The minimal setting required for Web Management is:
SET CLASSPATH=C:\3Com;
The following setting is also acceptable:
SET CLASSPATH=C:\3Com;C:\java\classes;
This setting can potentially cause problems:
SET CLASSPATH=C:\java\classes;C:\myclasses;C:\3Com;
The next setting results in unspecified behavior, because certain 3Com
Web Management directories are not included. An unspecified
CLASSPATH has similar results. In either case, the installed Web
Management applications may fail to run:
SET CLASSPATH=C:Local Status Log
