Class Not Found Error Doesn't Make Sense

Possible answer to CNF Exception problems.
I have written a simple slide show applet that displays a sequence of jpgs. In order to make it work for the majority of people and older systems I used the AWT Applet rather than the JApplet framework.
I compiled it using the latest JDK 1.4.1, ran it using applet viewer and locally inside my web browser (IE 6.0) and it all worked fine.
I uploaded it to a web-server, tested it and received a Class Not Found exception. After a few hours of checking, rechecking (code= codebase= etc. etc.) I decided to use an older version of the JDK to compile the applet (since the code was compatible). The oldest I could find was 1.1.8, so I compiled, uploaded and it works on every computer I've tried???
What is the problem here?? Windows 98, the 1.4.1 JDK, IE 6.0?? Has anyone had similar problems before? Why did it work locally but not online?

Hi.
Instead of using the old JDK you can also compile your code for a specific version with
javac -target 1.1 MyApp.javaCheers,

Class not found error afer loading classes to oracle

hi i have loaded quite a few jars into oralce 11g databse
created a java stored function
and executed it
some times it works... and hits the java front end environment... we are hitting a servlet.. and recording some output statements .. in the function
but sometimes it throws class not found error
any idea why its working sometimes and not some othr times?
Also when i load the jars.. the classes are loaded but when i see the name of the classes using
select * from user_objects where object_type like 'J%'
then i see some additional characters prefixxed the class names ... is that causing the problem?
something like this

Learning_man,
Obviously you need to learn how to ask a question.
There is nothing in your post other than 'It doesn't work. Why? Help"
without any specific example. Also you still fail to include a 4 digit version!!!
It is also the third or the fourth time you asked this very same question.
Can you learn how to ask a question please? And stop repeating the question when you don't get a response?
And no, the extra characters are not the problem.
An incorrect CLASSPATH probably is.

WLS 7 SSL class not found error

Actually, I got the same error message to start the Node Manager. However, I don't
have the RSA license at this moment. How can it make the WL to use com.certicom.net.ssl.CerticomContextWrapper
instead of com.rsa.ssl.WeblogicContextWrapper?
Thanks,
Victor

Certicom classes are shipped in weblogic.jar, you must have RSA license,
but
no RSA SSL classes in the server classpath?

Class not found error over HTTPS connection

Problem: Facing problem in downloading signed JAR file over HTTPS connection.
While downloading the jar file over a https connection, i get a certificate with following message
" Do you want to accept the certificate from web site <server name> for the purpose of exchanging encrypted information? "
If i accept the ceritificate immediately without any delay, all goes fine. The jar file gets downloaded and the applet runs withoput any problem. But if we accept the certificate after some delay say after one or two minutes i get "Class not found error"
Has anybody come across any such issue ?
Thanks in advance.
Rohit

I got the same error. I believe the ssl connection has a short timeout.
But I don't think this is a bug because there is no sense in letting a ssl connection open in the initial state before accepting the server's certificate.

"class not found error" and applets ...

To run an applet inside an html page using the embedded oc4j i have to copy the library containing the applet to the same directory as the html page. Otherwise i get a class not found error....Is there a better way of doing this?
thanks in advance for any advise

Hi,
you should be able to reference the JAR file from teh HTML tag. If not then this sounds like a bug that should be filed

Class not found error for applet.

This is probally a really simple mistake but I've tried everything and can't find it.
My applet works fine with applet viewer - I'm running it from JBuilder. But when I open my html file in the browser it gives me a 'Class not found' error. I've tried running other applets (my own and demos on this site) and they work fine.This is the applet tag code:
<applet code = "Rotary.class" width = "650" height = "580" align = "top">

<param name = "sector0" value ="234,215,244,207,154,43,125,63">
</applet>
The class file is in the same directory as the HTML file. Do I need to specify the codebase? I tried that too - giving it the full pathname of the class.
In the Java console it said that it couldn't find "C:Project\Rotary\javax\swing\japplet"
I don't think it could have anything to do with the fact that I'm using swing because the other applets I used used swing.
Please help - I'm really running out of ideas here!

You have a similar problem like I had.
You seem to have a too old JAVA environment for the browser - I had a too new environment.
For all who are experiencing the same problem!
Problem:
You're compiling your applets with a quiet modern compiler (i.e. Netbeans Version 3.5.1)
You are able to compile your applets without any problems but if you try your applets in "real life", the browsers can't interpret your applets [class not found]. (I tested Internet Explorer 6.0 and Netscape Navigator 4.7)
So you need a plugin for the new JAVA environment because the JAVA environment of the browser is older than that which the applet needs.
Well, you have the choice to demand to every user of your applet to download the new Java Runtime Environment, but then don't wonder why nobody visits your site!
But, don't worry: I figuered out another solution, that Netbeans (www.netbeans.org) allows to compile in different JAVA versions.
Solution:
What you have to do is:
- Install a previous version of JDK (i.e. JDK 1.3 - I would suggest, lower versions don't work with Netbeans 3.5.1 and JDK 1.3 is enough for IE 6.0 and NN 4.7, which I tested)
- Go into the "bin"-directory of Netbeans (i.e. c:/netbeans3.5.1/bin)
- Open the file "ide.cfg" (with notepad or any other texteditor)
- You see a line like: jdkhome "C:\java\j2sdk1.4.2" -J-Xmx96m -J-Xss1024k -J-Xms24m -J-Xverify:none
- Change the path to your other JDK you wish, like: jdkhome "C:\java\jdk1.3" -J-Xmx96m -J-Xss1024k -J-Xms24m -J-Xverify:none
- That's it, you can compile your applets in a previous version of JAVA so that "older" browser user don't have to install a plugin for the new JAVA environment.
Have fun!
If you have any questions I would be pleased to help you.
If this tip helped you already I would be pleased if you would send me a quick email with your experience.

"Class not found" error at runtime when ExternalLib DC is included in WD DC

Hi All,
I am getting "Class not found" exception at runtime when external library DC is included in Webdynpro DC.
I am following the below steps..
1) Created a Webdynpro DC - "testProj" to which i need to add the external library DC.
2) Created a DC of type "External Library" called "externaljar"
3)Added Public Parts of type assembly and compilation to the "externaljar" DC (Component Properties Tab -> Public Parts)
4) Right click on the assembly Public Part name -> Manage entities, and added the JAR files as archive.
5)Right click on the compilation Public Part name -> Manage entities, and added the JAR files as archive.
6)Go to Webdynpro DC "testProj" .
Under Component Properties Tab -> Dependencies tab -> Add -> selected the "externaljar" DC -> Next -> for "externaljar" DC checked Deploy time and Run time.
For assembly Public Part and compilation Public Part "build" is selected by default.
7) I did build of both the DC's and deployed it.
Im getting "Class not found" error.
Please let me know where i am going wrong.
Thanks,
Shilpa.

Hi Balakrishna,
If I add Jar files in build path, at run time I dont get any errors, but I get error at comple time. So an external DC is made which includes all jar files in its public part and this DC is added as dependency in the webdynpro project (at deploy time,run time) as in below blog.

Here im getting the error "class not found".

Servlet class not found error deploying a WAR on Web Logic Server 8.1

I'm re-deploying an updated web application to a web logic server, but when I navigate to the login page of the web application to test it, I get a class not found error for my login servlet. I have both the web.xml and the weblogic.xml descriptors in my WEB-INF directory, and all of my compiled classes are in the WEB-INF/classes directory, is there something else I'm missing? Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks for the response. Here's the web.xml file:

None of the classes are in a package (I know it's not the best idea, but I didn't write these, I'm just doing some updates). So the file structure is pretty much just WEB-INF/classes/
At the moment I've got a fix by just putting the entire project (not in any sort of archive) on the server itself instead of deploying it as a WAR, any thoughts on why the WAR isn't working would be much appreciated though.

Urgent ! Class not found error

Hi,
I am new to Java RMI and i am trying lot of example from books. Iam struck in HelloWorld example and i need your help urgently to solve this problem as i have to start my coursework.
When i compile all the class together by command "javac *.java", it compiles sucessfully but when i try to compile separtley by giving name of each class like javac HelloWorld.java, javac HelloworldImpl.java .... only the interface class compiles sucessfully. The implementation class has the error in extending UnicastRemoteObject and implementing remote interface class. But i wonder how it compiles sucessfuly when i compiled it together !
Ok, I have decided to compile the class together but iam not able to do more than that. When i tried to create a stub and skelton class by the command "rmic HelloworldImpl", it shows an error "Class not found". My professor said that the problem could be in classpath.
I am using XP Professional and i have set the path in system properties to C:\j2sdk1.4.2_05\bin and class path to C:\j2sdk1.4.2_05\lib but it doesn't make any difference. I have tried lot of stuff but i couldn't solve this problem. I need your advice or any suggestion to solve this problem.

hi
above discussion about classpath variable seems strange , myself also face such type problem, but when setting classpath it works for me, even sometimes without setting classpath it works fine for me but sometimes not,
so could any expert help us to know ,what is the permanent solution for such problems,
and also when i remove the classpath variable and set the path variable to the
jdk1.4\bin ( i means in the bin of any jdk)
is classpath variable have it's default settings so that it is able to find java api classes without setting classpath
because i never set classpath variable ......for running simple java program simple go to directory where my programs are put and run
javac *.java and
java ....it
please anybody explain this behaviour of classpath variable clearly

what would the possible reason for that and how can i come out of it..

the reason: the class is not in the classpath. Or the project's runtime classpath.
Make sure it's added to the build path and if necessary exported all the way to your JUnit project.

9.0.3 Preview - Class not found error after including jsp:useBean

Hi,
I got a Java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError while compiling a JSP Page, after including a simple web bean as follows:
<jsp:useBean id="catviews" scope="request" class="CategoryView" />
<jsp:setProperty name="catviews" property="*" />
somewhere within the HTML page...
<%= catviews.getCategory() %>
The JSP page without the bean compiles fine and the Javabean itself compiles without error. The bean class is where JDev automatically puts it (i.e in a sub-directory of the classes directory within the project) and JDev does not raise any error on that JSP Page before compiling.
The error seems to point to the first line of the page, to the directive of the JSP page:
<%@ contentType="text/html" ... %> which is apparently harmless. What can be wrong ?
Thanks for your reply.

'Class not found' means 'Class not found' , the class you are referencing is not in your project's classpath. You should make sure your project's classpath point to the location where this class is deployed to. This could be a directory or a .jar file. You should also include the package name as part fo the class.
