Hi,
I have a very simple problem (not for me !) I have JSP with the following header:
<%@ page import="x.y.z.auction.*" errorPage="/error.jsp" %>
<jsp:useBean id="auction" class="AuctionBean" scope="request" />
....
It gives me the error java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: AuctionBean. The AuctionBean.class file is present in auction/WEB-INF/classes/x/y/z
However, if I change the second line in the JSP to
<jsp:useBean id="auction" class="x.y.z.auction.AuctionBean" scope="request" /> it works perfectly.
Why is it not working with only the class name ?
Thanks in advance,
Anoop

Thsnks for pointing out my typo, I have edited the oringinal post to reflect the change in the second line (Where I use the fully qualified class name).

In the autoexec.bat specify the classpath as:
set path=c:\..\..\x\y\z;

It seems to me that your bean class has package statement.
If it does have one then you know that the class is always referred with it's package name where ever you are using it.just importing will not suffice.
note that the built in classes in jdk are placed in packages but they don't have a package statement declared in them.
Hope this helps,
Manjunth

You are absolutely right. My Bean class has a package statement so that it is a part of the same package. How can we make it a part of the package without using a package statement. Could you please elaborate on that.
Thanks for your help,
Anoop

The simplest way (and the only way i know) is to put these classes manually in which ever package you want without giving a package statement in the class
