I am using JBoss App.server and Eclipse IDE. I want to create a JBoss server using eclipse IDE. I created one but when I start it it's giving me exception. Can someone tell me how to get rid of this??

Ram,
It looks like a classpath issue. Double check whether j2ee.jar is in your classpath.

I'm moving this to the JBoss forum. If it winds up being an Eclipse issue, someone there can move it back.

[Scott Duncan]

This isn't a problem with the J2EE.jar. Jboss ships those as jboss-servlet.jar, jboss-jsp.jar, etc....

In any case, It looks like you ar missing the dom4j.jar file. This should be in your jboss_home/lib directory. If it is not, I'd reinstall. Did you install a service pack or something instead of the full-blown app server? This jar file comes with the install...
