Question

After deploying my war on my server I get the following error,

I have checked for the commons-beanutils.jar under WEB-INF/lib folder and it is present there. I have included it under the class path in my build.xml.

Is there anything else I am missing?

After deploying war did you check your commons-beanutils jar is there ? — Bilbo Baggins, Sep 10 '14 at 05:56
Did you open the jar and see if Converter was actually there? — TechTrip, Sep 10 '14 at 06:01
Hi Sam, yes after deploying i checked under the folder WEB-INF/lib and it is present there — Priyaranjan Singh, Sep 10 '14 at 06:06
Hi Tech, The jar is working fine for another project. No problem with that. — Priyaranjan Singh, Sep 10 '14 at 06:07
seems like a version related issue, or may be you have two jars with different versions. — Bilbo Baggins, Sep 10 '14 at 06:40

I think your server can't find the Converter class in org.apache.commons.beanutils package.Please also check your project build path to see if there is org.apache.commons.beanutils.converter class present or not. If not then Download the latest Commons-Utils jar and add it to in your lib folder. You find the link [here]http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-beanutils/index.html
