Mapscript/Java Tomcat

[Umberto Nicoletti]

Remove mapscript.jar from your app WEB-INF/lib and put it in
TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib.
If I recall correctly 4.4.2 should have the native library loading
code already in place in  mapscript.jar so you do not have to call
System.loadLibrary() for your servlet.

Regards,
Umberto
