for this I already include commons-logging-1.0.4.jar and frontman-1.6.2.jar in WEB-INF/lib.

I am using Netbeans IDE 7.0.

Anything i miss here?

Thanks.

the above is solved by adding log4j api into lib directory.

but now have another problem when hit the url to get helloworld message.

org.bibeault.frontman.CommandNotFoundException: Could not associate a Command implementation with command verb getHelloWorldMessage
	org.bibeault.frontman.CommandBroker.findCommandClass(CommandBroker.java:278)

	javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:617)
	javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:717)

any idea?

commandsPath should identify a package, not a class.

Any idea why am I facing this error?

No idea. But it has nothing to do with FrontMan.
