NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/xml/serialize/XMLSerializer

[tek1]

i have xerces.jar inside of my .war file, which is inside of a .ear file, but for some reason, jboss can't locate the xerces.jar file.

jboss: 3.0.2+jetty
jdk: 1.4.0

should i move the xerces.jar out of my .war file into [JBOSS_HOME]/server/default/lib?

thank you.

I have the same problem

When i put the jar in the /server/lib folder it could finnally find it. (P.S restart the server)

I'd like to know how to package the jar in a ear or bean file

yes, putting xerces.jar in server/default/lib seemed to do the trick, but would like to know (as you do) why the NoClassDefFoundError for XMLSerializer occurs when xerces.jar is in our .war/.ear?

Could someone point out where we can find this stuff.

How to package beans for idiots ;)
