NoClassDefFoundError

[Linda Ruiz]

I'm in an Advanced Java class trying to make a servlet work and I'm stuck. I think the problem may have to do with declaring a local variable in my doGet method, but I can't figure it out. I'm trying to do a search in an employee database. Would someone be willing to look at my code? I'm new to JavaRanch, so I'm not sure how this works...

If you paste some sample code (using the UBB 'code' tags, there are buttons to add them on the page where you write your post). Try to keep it short while giving us enough to work with, try not to post everything.

I find there are heaps of people sitting around waiting to help you with your problem, you just have to ask right!

... and welcome!

HI Linda,

It seems that you are mising some class file in the class path. Please place the exception log, along with the specific code(line), so that exact problem could be figured out.

Hi Linda,

Welcome to Javaranch. Hope you enjoy ranching here.

Could you give the exact error message that you are getting.

That would be helpful to trace the error that bugs you. Also please specify the web server, on which your servlet is running.

Cheers,
Swamy.

Hi,

You can try this too.

set classpath = %classpath%;.------> Don't miss the dot at the end.

This might work. Any idea?

Cheers,
Swamy

thanks for all your responses. Turns out my servletExecDebugger wasn't set right. Then moving some connection code from doGet to init did the trick. On to the last project of the semester!
