JPA application noclassdeffound error

[ishakteyran]

hello to all,

i am developing my first JPA application on RAD 7.5.5 windows vista business, and using websphere application server 7.0 .

using RAD , i created a JPA application and i created my entities and entity managers as well successfully, then for trying to actually manipulate my data, i created a Deneme.java which has the code

package source;

import entities.controller.*;
import entities.*;

import javax.persistence.*;

public class Deneme {
	

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		
		EntityManager em = Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("Dene").createEntityManager();
		System.out.print("success");

	}

}

and i made the application run as java application but it gave the following error :

--------------------------------------------------

using the first line of the exception i made asearch on google and i found the suggestion on this forum post and copied commons collectins, beanutils, digester, logging and openjpa latest zip file to the build path of my application.

and i made the aplication run. but still i get the very same error :(

if it will make any help here is also the persistence.xml contents

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<persistence version="1.0" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_1_0.xsd">

		<class>entities.Child</class>
		<class>entities.Parent</class>
		<properties>
			<property name="openjpa.jdbc.Schema" value="Schema"/>
		</properties>
	</persistence-unit>
</persistence>

can anyone please suggest me how to come over of this problem ?

thank you

well, i think it is a stupidity of RAD, instead of zip files (because it allows me to add zip files as library jars) , i showed the actual jar files and it accepted, but now there is this error :
