Getting java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Filter exception on Jboss

Question

I have been using Tomcat 6 for all my application development and deployment purposed, but today decided to use JBoss as it seems to be more scalable.

But after configuring JBoss on my eclipse and deploying my application I get the following error,

Getting java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Filter exception on Jboss

I added the server library in the server classpath and the error disappeared, but still the application fails to load, since spring doesn't initialize.

UPDATE

Now I am getting the following error, the application runs fine in Tomcat 6, this the stack trace I am getting,

Can't seem to understand why spring fails to load, I have the following description in my web.xml,

<context-param>
    <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
    <param-value>classpath:spring/*Context.xml</param-value>
</context-param>

Answer 1

Check all of your spring bean configs inside every xml files under classpath:spring/*Context.xml whether you have defined a bean named '/login'.

If the spring bean xml definition files is inside a jar file, make sure the jar is available in your webapp and make sure those jars contain the spring bean definition.
