Please UseCodeTags when posting code or configuration. Unformatted code and configuration is very difficult to read. You can edit your post to include them by using the button.

Is your class being deployed? To where? What's "WebINF", do you mean "WEB-INF"?

Where are your classes being deployed? Why is the WEB-INF directory still named incorrectly?

I think he has the WEB-INF directory correct, otherwise I think it wouldn't have loaded the xml file.

But the classes are not in the class path. Where is your WEB-INF/classes directory or is there a jar file with that class in your classpath.
