getting noClassDef found error eventhough correct jar is present

[Chintan_Spring]

Hi,

I am getting following exception during deployment of application

Exception stacktrace:

Exception:weblogic.management.ApplicationException: start() failed.

I have put Spring.jar and spring-aop.jar inside classpath. when i extract my EAR i am able see both jars. However during deployment i am getting above exception.
spring-aop.jar contains org/aopalliance/intercept/MethodInterceptor class file.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Thanks
Chintan

Did you place the jars under WEB-INF/lib or directly under the EAR's root? I propose the latter approach.
BTW: Using spring.jar will suffice as it does contain everything that spring-aop.jar contains. Check the contents to verify that the MethodInterceptor class is present.

Hi Andreas,

At present it is in inside the EAR root which is used by business/data layer. I also tried by putting in WEB-INF/lib folder. but still it is giving same error.

Even i check content inside spring.jar file. It doesn't have MethodInterceptor class.

Let me know if there are other alternate.

Hi Andreas,

I am able to resolve the problem. in current spring.jar, MethodInterceptor class was missing. so i replaced with new spring.jar and it's working.


thx

Hi,

I am facing the following teth-breaking problem while trying to deploy an EAR which contains a RAR module inside it.

Can anybody please throw some light how to overcome this.

There seems to be a problem in your deployment descriptor concerning the element "use-first-available-connection". Have a look at the documentation of your application server to find out what's wrong.

Besides that: As your problem has nothing to do with this thread (in fact I do not even see a connection with Spring) it would have been better to open a new thread with an appropriate subject line. This improves the probability of sensible answers.
