I have created a simple web application into a java_app.war file which in turn package up into a java_app.ear file. I deploy the java_app.ear file into the C:\JBoss-2.4.4_Tomcat-4.0.1\jboss\deploy directory. The deployment is successful but when I access the entry page of my application "entApp.jsp" by a browser, it complains that class "LogonBean.class" not found(it is used inside enterApp.jsp). But I have package this class into my war file(under a "utility" directory because it is inside a package "utility").

The java_app.ear file includes the following:
META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
META-INF/application.xml
java_app.war

Where the java_app.war includes the following:

WEB-INF\web.xml
enterApp.jsp
utility\LogonBean.class

So theoretically the LogonBean.class file should be located.

The following error is produced by jboss back to the browser. What am I missing?

Thanks.

Allen.
