Configuring Mail Servers For GMAIL SSL

Juan R Bonfante

I followed the instructions for adding a JNDI connector to my server.xml file, setup the path, copied over the activaiton and mail jars to the confluence/jre/lib directory. But I'm still getting a no class found error:

Hi Juan,

Judging from your issue description, it seems that you move the mail jar to a wrong directory. Please try to move it to <Confluence_Install_Dir>/lib/ directory if you are using the standalone version, restart and see how it goes.

If you are running Confluence using WAR, then you should moved it to <Tomcat 6 Install>/lib/ directory. Restart Toncat and see how it goes.

Hope it helps.

Cheers,
