Web application .war file

Question

I have a war file with the following structure
index.jsp
WEB-INF/web.xml
WEB-INF/classes (all my servlets here)
WEB-INF/lib (all my application jar files)
The web.xml just defines all the servlets as follows
=================================================
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.2//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2.2.dtd">
<web-app>
<servlet>
<servlet-name> HtmlServlet </servlet-name>
<servlet-class> <PKG PATH>.HtmlServlet </servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet>
<servlet-name> ChartServlet </servlet-name>
<servlet-class> <PKG PATH>.ChartServlet </servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name> HtmlServlet </servlet-name>
<url-pattern> /HtmlServlet </url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name> ChartServlet </servlet-name>
<url-pattern> /ChartServlet </url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<welcome-file-list>
     <welcome-file>index.jsp</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
</web-app>
=======================================
WHen I run my application, the index.jsp starts compiling
and throws an error
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/omg/CORBA/ORB
This class is in one of the jar files in my WEB-INF/lib folder.
What am I missing? Do I have to declare something in my web.xml file or do I need to put that in weblogic.xml? Currently I dont
have any weblogic.xml file.
Thanks,

Hi Michael,
I am having the same problem. can you provide more information. I was not
able to find out the answer in the servlet 2.2 specification.
Thanks,

I believe that you need to register your helper classes in the Web.XML file
in your Web application. Check out the servlet 2.2 specification for more
