It is looking for clover jar at runtime it seems.

Do I need to configurate classpath

[Jobin Kuruvilla [Adaptavist]]

Ideally, it shouldn't be needed at runtime but try adding it in classpath and see if it works. I don't know why clover is required during runtime!

I am new at this how do i do this ? pls can you give a walkthrough

[burak yıldız]

Thanks to you i solved it.

I add .classpath file to web app in server.This classpath point to clover.jar(WEB-INF\lib\clover.jar).

Then re-run server.
