AppEngine Error [ java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/w3c/dom/ElementTraversal ]

google-app-engine

i was looking to find a solution for this problem but seems difficult. I have appengine project working with a servlet that handle registration. When i try to call this servlet i have this log report:

Thanks all

  • MAVEN SOLUTION:

At pom.xml , set "xml-apis" dependency to version 1.4.01:

<dependency>
    <groupId>xml-apis</groupId>
    <artifactId>xml-apis</artifactId>
    <version>1.4.01</version>
</dependency>
  • SOLUTION FOR EVERYONE ELSE:

If not using maven, you can manually add the xml-apis library, version 1.4.01. You will find the jars inside the xml-commons binary package, named "XML Commons External 1.4.01", and you can download it here: http://xerces.apache.org/mirrors.cgi.

Finally, compile and execute your java application/project with this version of the library.

  • Explanation:

The 1.4.01 version of the xml-apis library, includes the required ElementTraversal class. Other versions like 2.0.0, 1.0.0, etc. do not include it, and the application fails while compiling.


There may be some existing issue with the Xerces parser on GAE. See http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=1367

Maybe the workaround is to ensure that all of Xerces jars (including xml-apis.jar) are in your WEB-INF/lib.
