Unable to start weblogic 10 with eclipse

Question

Hello,
i've a weblogic 10 server and it runs normally if i want to start from the DOS command-line and my ear is correctly deployed.
When i try to start the same server within eclipse, my application seems to be initialized but at the end of the starting i've the following error :
<Critical> <WebLogicServer> <AdminServer> <main> <<WLS Kernel>> <> <BEA-000386> <Server subsystem failed. Reason: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: weblogic/management/internal/DynamicMBeanImpl

I don't know what i have to do, and where should i find the DynamicMBeanImpl in the weblogic 10 API.
Thanks

Hi, David. Adding weblogic.jar by the full path will and does work. It makes sense to doubt this, but have a look at the manifest.mf file. It is these relative classpath entries that don't resolve correctly unless the real path of weblogic.jar is in the eclipse launch path. Hunting individual jars is a never-ending process in wls10. It is easiest to just use the original weblogic.jar file.
This is why. Notice all the relative classpath entries:

See what I mean? You would end up needing a crazy amount of individual jars to get the equivalent classpath of the weblogic.jar in its original location.
Does that make sense?
