javax.servlet.ServletFileUpload class not find in my pc
while
javax.servlet.Servlet find
i am using fileupload 1.2.1.jar file

what should i do?

[Amol Nayak]

there is no such class javax.servlet.ServletFileUpload in servlet API.

However any classes you are not able to find from javax.servlet package is due to same problem you have in the post
package apache.commons not exists

[deep raj]

actually it is written by mistaken
the problem is that
javax.servlet.servletinputstream class not found
error is
noclassdefifoundexcepttion

[David Newton]

There's no class "javax.servlet.servletinputstream", either.

Please try to be concise when reporting errors. Copying them can save wasted time
Did you mean that the class javax.servlet.ServletInputStream (note capitalisation) throws a NoClassDefFoundError (note capitalisation)?

[deep raj]

means
i saw in servlet-api package there is this class

[deep raj]

David O'Meara
yes this class throw this exception
how can i remove it?

[Amol Nayak]

Hi Amrita,
I have communicated in my previous post what your problem might be. Your tomcat installation looks to be messed up (based on what your have posted in your other post). As suggested in other forum try reinstalling tomcat and both of your problems will be sorted out.

Also NoClassDefFoundError is an Error as the name suggests, not an Exception

[deep raj]

how can it be messed?

[David Newton]

Have the class on your classpath when you run your application.

I'll repeat: at this point it would be quickest to reinstall Tomcat; since you haven't answered the library location questions you've been asked, it's impossible to know what you're done to break it.

Because you're trying random things to get it to work.

[deep raj]

in my app WEB-INF/lib contains the following jar files
1. jstl
2. standard
3. cataline-root
4. commons-fileupload-1.2.1

[David Newton]

Aaaand in your Tomcat lib directory? Would it really be too much trouble to just reinstall Tomcat?

[deep raj]

means

what should i do now?

[David Newton]

REINSTALL TOMCAT.

[deep raj]

no effect after reinstall

[David O'Meara]

why is catalina-root in your lib directory?
