java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/MyCompany/Beans/Crawler (wrong name: Crawler). I keep getting this error when i try and run a .jsp page. The problem stems from this line: <jsp:useBean id="craw" class="com.MyCompany.Beans.Crawler">. The line looks right to me. :confused:
Are you using an IDE now? If so, try to add tools.jar to the project.

I went back to using notepad for now. As far as i understand it tomcat looks for classes stored in the following directory C:\Jakarta\jakarta-tomcat-5.0.28\webapps\ora\WEB-INF\classes. Im storing my classes in com\MyCompany\Beans which is off of the classes dir. So i should just have to use the latter directory path within the <jsp:useBean> tag but it doesn't work.
do you add -classpath as a parameter when you compile JSP files with javac? If so, check to see that it is pointing to the right location. So it can locate the classes you need.

I think -classpath can be only used when running .class files using java. C:\jdk1.5.0\bin> javac -classpath C:\; Test.java won't work. The build.xml file should give the paths where the tomcat container can find the files. Shouldn't it? :confused:
After looking at the build.xml file i found the following line. It looks like it's telling tomcat where to find any files to run. I don't know squat about .xml so im just guessing. :lol:
Code:<classpath>
<pathelement location="${webapp.path}/WEB-INF/classes"/>

But then it HAS to be something with your varaibles. When I google on it I keep finding stuff like this:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: sun/tools/javac/Main means that your classpath is not set correctly. Make sure your JAVA_HOME is set up right before you run the tomcat or startup scripts. If that doesn't do it, see these FAQ.
