<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I'm sorry for the earlier posts, my keyboard enter key was malfunctioning.</DIV>
<DIV><BR>I'm using weblogic 10, and deployed my application as EAR. My custom appender is located in the WEB-INF/lib. I am getting this ClassNotFoundException.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV>app.ear</DIV>
<DIV> - web1.war </DIV>
<DIV> - WEB-INF/lib</DIV>
<DIV> customAppenderPackage.jar</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV></DIV>
<DIV>So I've tried the following but still it can't find it:</DIV>
<DIV>- deploying customAppenderPackage.jar as a shared library</DIV>
<DIV>- putting in APP-INF/lib/customAppenderPackage.jar</DIV>
<DIV>- adding in the MANIFEST Class-Path</DIV>
<DIV>- adding as "library-ref" in weblogic.xml and weblogic-application.xml</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The only one that worked is when I moved the customAppenderPackage.jar in my weblogic server domain library directory. But I don't want this... I want it to be inside my EAR package.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Any ideas how to solve this?</DIV>
<DIV>How does class loading in logback works?</DIV>
