Thanks for patience. plz tell me what could be the possible cause of this. i have checked my faces.config and beans and the jsp page etc. every thing is well bind. And the fact that it was working just fine and all of a sudden this error generated is weird and spooky.
Thanks in advance. Plz answer before closing the question or yelling at me for being so naive.

This is a typical problem deploying applicaitons in eclipse and tomcat.
As shazin said you can do Project-Clean Maven clean etc..
This should be enough, but in my case, sometimes this doesn't solve the problem.
If it doesn't work try to go to SERVER tab, right click on the tomcat server and do a "Clean". Tomcat will publish the projects again.

Do a Project -> Clean and if you are using Maven do a Maven Clean also.

Java Servlet: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.json.simple.parser.ParseException [duplicate]

This question already has an answer here:
Servlet: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.json.simple.parser.ParseException
(1 answer)
Closed 7 years ago.
I am implementing Google Cloud Messaging service for android. I have created a test server which sends push notifications to application users. But the server I have created is generating following error. I am using Java Servlet at server side and have included gcm-server.jar file in project.
I tried with following jar files
1. json-simple-1.1.jar
2. json-simple-1.1.1.jar
Even though getting the same error.
here is the error report

The json-simple-1.1.jar should appear in the WEB-INF/lib folder of your web application deployed into Tomcat. See http://java.sun.com/j2ee/verified/packaging.html#mechs .

json-simple-1.1.jar was in my classpath twice. Removed one instance and problem fixed.

JUDDI: (/juddiv3/services) is not available

after installing juddi server as described here
http://thoughtsasaservice.wordpress.com/tag/juddi/
I can enter to the main interface here:

The error message says not all jUDDI's webapplications were deployed successfully.
Check catalina.out because there might have more problems before the one you posted.
Keep in mind jUDDI is very sensitive to its underlying software such as JDK, MySQL and Tomcat.
Make sure you have EXACTLY the same versions as described in http://thoughtsasaservice.wordpress.com/2011/07/22/how-to-install-juddi-on-tomcat/

I'd suggest downloading the prepackaged version from the Apache jUDDI web site. The latest version (3.1.5) works, however I don't think the portlets work.
Alternatively, you can grab the source code from the trunk and build 3.2, which has a brand new user interface.
Edit: if the splash page works, and the service listing doesn't, it could indicate that you're using a different soap stack (other than Apache CXF). If that's true, the listing of services it probably at a different url.

I am using Spring 2.5.6 , Spring web flow 2.0.8 with Tomcat 6.0.20...
Any idea why the WEB_APPLICATION_CONTEXT_ATTRIBUTE field is not available? How do I resolve this error?

You've still got the same problem with your Spring JAR versions as you did in Spring Web flow configuration error
RequestContext.WEB_APPLICATION_CONTEXT_ATTRIBUTE wasn't present in Spring 2.0, only in 2.5.6 and later.
