NoClassDefFoundError when loading NdStatelessServer class
After upgrading my application from blaze 7.4 to blaze 7.7 I'm getting this error when trying to deploy my java weblogic application: Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize...
I ran into this (or similar) issue before, and the cause turned out to be a missing dependency of log4j2. Looks like the older 7.x versions were using log4j v1.x, and as AdvisorSvr and friends do not list their dependencies in an embedded pom.xml, there's no way to get a warning during maven build.
You can lookup the dependencies needed in the Advisor77/bin/setenv.* scripts, and there's a good explanation of what is needed and when in the "Adding Jar Files" section of DevelopingRuleMaintenanceApplications.pdf, page 442.
