Hello folks!
It would be so good if a kind soul helped me.
I am stuck in this: when trying to deploy a small Test Servlet to Tomcat (inside Eclipse), the console shows this message and the deployment fails:
...
03/08/2016 23:04:11 org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoaderBase validateJarFile
INFO: validateJarFile(D:\Dev\JavaEEProjects\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.wst.server.core\tmp0\wtpwebapps\TestWeb\WEB-INF\lib\MyUtils.jar) - jar not loaded. See Servlet Spec 3.0, section 10.7.2. Offending class: javax/servlet/Servlet.class
Followed by:
java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: org.apache.catalina.LifecycleException: Failed to start component [StandardEngine[Catalina].StandardHost[localhost].StandardContext[/TestWeb]]
...
Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Lcom/erich/myUtils/RandomSeedGenerator;
...
Then deployment is halted.
This RandomSeedGenerator Class is actually part of the jar I am trying to include in the Project - MyUtils.jar.
Before anyone asks, this Jar is working flawlessly as I already use it in other Projects (Swing/Awt and others).
I just cannot make it work with Servlets (Dynamic Web Project) for Tomcat 7.
What I have tried so far:
- Project -> Properties -> Deployment Assembly -> Add... -> Archives from Filesystem -> Add... (select Jar file) ---- this leads to the same error as above;
- Copying the jar into the Tomcat/lib folder --- This works ok in Windows. The Servlet deploys and works, but I fail to make it work in Tomcat for Ubuntu (same error as above) and afterall what I want is a single file (the WAR) containing all the classes required by my Project in a single file;
- Dragging the jar file from File Explorer and Dropping into WebContent/WEB-INF/lib folder in Eclipse ---- this leads to the very same error as above. Actually the error I captured above was from this last attempt.
Of course, for it to be able to compile, this Jar is already added to the Build Path (Project -> Java Build Path -> Add External Jar), but this only enables to compile.
If it helps, I am using Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers. Version: Luna Service Release 2 (4.4.2) Build id: 20150219-0600. The JDK I am working with is 1.6, Tomcat is version 7.
Thanks in advance...

It's best to ask on the Web Tools forum.
