Is it possible that a reference to dom4j in a .jar file is causing this issue? &nbsp;my dependacies are:<br />
<br />

dom4j-1.6.1.jar<br />
jaxen.jar<br />
jaxrpc-api.jar<br />
junit.jar<br />

By themselves they have no dependencies on it but XPP is dependent on Junit (xerces.jar is an optional component).<br />

I would write a simple HelloWorld servlet, one with no dependencies, and then try to deploy this rather than one that deals with xml and testing. As I said, all you need to do is to compile the class, map it in the web.xml and then deploy.

I'm trying to create a WAR file using Sun AppServer 8.1 deploytool. &nbsp;I've created a class that extends HttpServlet and then selected it and all of its dependancies in the deploy tool, when I click next I get the following error:<br />
<br />
ClassDef not found: &nbsp; org.git.xpp.XmlStartTag<br />
<br />
I have no idea why there would be some dependancy on this class. &nbsp;Is this class used in Java 1.5?

Problem trying to deploy my first Servlet

JavaServer Pages (JSP) allow the development of dynamically generated web pages. It uses the Java programming language; JSP pages are translated into servlets at runtime, with each servlet being cached and reused until the JSP is modified. JSP allows Java code to be interleaved with static web markup content, so the resulting page can be compiled and executed on the server to deliver the content.
