I am trying to configure my path to include javax.servlet with WebLogic. WebLogic has split out the Jar files, so which one contains javax.servlet?

Starting with WebLogic 10, BEA externalized the implementation of API specs from weblogic.jar into various "modules". They now bundle a new api.jar in {BEA_HOME}/wlsever_10.3/server/lib/ that contains just a MANIFEST.MF which points to {BEA_HOME}/modules/*.jar.

These modules include all API specifications as well as features provided BEA/ORACLE.

So, for Servlet API 2.5, indeed include {BEA_HOME}/modules/javax.servlet_1.0.0.0_2-5.jar.
