Error instantiating class file

[gtraas]

Hi all,

I've just downloading and installed JBoss 3.2.5 with Tomcat embedded. The problem I'm having, is this :

I've deployed my war file (exploded) to the /server/default/deploy folder and I see in JBoss's startup that Tomcat has seen and deployed it, but then when I try to access my Servlets, I get the following error:

type Exception report

message

description The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it from fulfilling this request.

exception

javax.servlet.ServletException: Error instantiating servlet class chpt3.RegisterServlet
 at org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapper.loadServlet(StandardWrapper.java:986)


root cause

I've taken most of the stack trace out.

Could someone please tell me why the imports can't be found?

Thanks

I've taken most of the stack trace out. - Don't do this, give people the full stack trace.
