Getting java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: net/sf/ehcache/CacheException. I'm not reference anything with net/... I appreciate any suggestion on how I go about finding where this class is being referenced.
I was completely a ClassPath issue. the ehcache-1.1.jar file needs to be in your classpath. If this is coming from JBoss you want to put this into your server directory under all, default, or minimum /lib directory. depending on which server type you are using.
I'm using hibernate 3 - ehcache-1.1.jar references net/sf/ehcache...
From hibernate.org:
"Be careful if you use external software that references Hibernate packages. For example, EHCache has its own CacheProvider in net.sf.ehcache.hibernate.Provider. Until all external software updates its references, you might have to patch and work around this issue. For EHCache you may also use the built-in provider in Hibernate: org.hibernate.cache.EhCacheProvider"
Do I need to be using org.hibernate.cach.EhCacheProvider instead? If so, how do I go about this?
Well, in our app, we don't specifically call the ehCache classes, it is part of the configuration, so all we need to do is have the jar file in the classpath.
