JBOSS NoClassDefFoundError: org/ejbca/util/InterfaceCache - eclipse

I got the error NoClassDefFoundError when trying to deploy the EJBCA API in my JSF project. When I deploy it in a simple java project, all goes fine with simple classes and JARs imported in the Java Build Path, but in the JSF that not happens.
I tried to copy the jars that I want from EJBCA folder and put in MyProject\WebContent\WEB-INF\lib and nothing happened.
What must I do?

CDI imports cannot be resolved in Eclipse

i have written an application on my pc using CDI as the backing bean for jsf, the application works completely fine.
Now i setup everything on a new pc, installed glassfish 4.1, setup eclipse kepler by putting the installed jre as jdk7 from the glassfish folder.
when i make a war for the application on my pc and deploy it onto the glassfish server on the other pc everything works fine.
now i tried taking the project from my pc and imported it onto the new pc. the eclipse on the new pc wont recognize import javax.enterprise.context.SessionScoped; giving compiler error that this annotation is not available.
The import javax.enterprise.context cannot be resolved
it doesnt recognize javax.enterprise.context.* at all. like CDI is not available. i am using JDK 7 which contains JSR 346, so i am completely confused what the issue could be.
if i deploy the application directly through the glassfish admin console using the war file it works perfectly fine but if i try to publish it through eclipse, it gives me unresolved compilation errors
Eclipse did not import ALL glassfish jars, so you need to:
Right Click on the project name, Build Path, Configure build path, under Libraries Click Add External Jars, go to where you have extracted Glassfish and import all jars that exists in:
glassfish4\glassfish\modules
and all sub directories two, like endoresed.
This will fix the problem for CDI and other stuff lik JAX-RS
If I had to guess, your .project and .classpath files are pointing to JAR locations that are specific to your old computer.
This is why people like build tools such as maven, or gradle, you can pick up and reimport a project; it'll resolve all dependencies for you.
Do you happen to use the GlassFish Tools plugin for Eclipse? I found that the GlassFish System Libraries classpath container, which is created implicitly by that plugin and which is added to all projects that specify a GlassFish server as their runtime, misses cdi-api.jar. This is where the javax.enterprise.context.* package is located (and many others).
So I could fix this by adding cdi-api.jar as an External Jar to the build path. After that, you may get a warning like Classpath entry [...]/cdi-api.jar will not be exported or published. Runtime ClassNotFoundExceptions may result., which can be eliminated by using the Quick Fix to Exclude the associated raw classpath entry from the set of potential publish/export dependencies. That JAR file is already contained in the modules folder of GlassFish, obviously.
Maybe this problem only occurs with the GlassFish Web Profile, at least that's what I use.

Netbeans Maven project to IDEA 12

Short version: I would like to deploy Maven generated WAR to Local Tomcat server and not to build the war with internal IDEA process since the produced WAR file is not the same as the Maven generated one.
Long version: I have been using the Netbeans IDE for my Maven Java project. One of the modules is packaged as a WAR and should be deployed to tomcat server.
In Netbeans when I selected "Run" on the Web Module it asks for application server configuration then it runs the maven 'package' goal and deploys the application(generated WAR) to the Tomcat Server probably via Tomcat manager. So far so good.
We are now in the process of switching to Scala language. Scala classes extend old Java classes and the project is now "Mixed". I have configured Maven to compile the project as a mix of scala and java code. Maven produces a WAR which can then be deployed to Tomcat server without trouble - everything works as it should.
Now I would like to switch to Intellij-idea 12 IDE. But I have a problem: IDEA is refusing to deploy Maven created artifacts and insists of building one by it's own. The war is not the same and can't be used. Is there a way to tell IDEA to use Maven generated WARs and not try to make it's own ?
Just for the record I have already read these articles:
http://riddhimandas.com/blog/111
http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/webhelp/configuring-web-application-deployment.html Manually build WAR by IDEA - Want the maven generated one
IntelliJ IDEA: Maven, project compilation and deployment There is a hint here that IDEA can deploy Maven artifact from the 'target' directory but there is no information on how to do that.
With the help of CrazyCoder I figured it out.
You can make Intellij-Idea to upload your war by selecting External Source
But that's not all, even if you have a context.xml file difining your Context Root inside your WAR file: http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/1.4/tutorial/doc/WebApp3.html
You must specify one for every artifact you deploying (Unless someone will correct me)
The before launch section can be used to tell Idea what to Maven Goal to Run if any

NoClassDefFoundError on Java EE server in eclipse with tomcat

I'm trying to build a hello world application utilising GCM for Android notifications. When developing the server part, I'm not entirely sure how to get the gcm-server.jar file into the project. I've added it to the build path and Eclipse finds it perfectly fine, but when I build and deploy the project to a tomcat server (from within eclipse) it's throwing the following error at runtime:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/google/android/gcm/server/Sender
I'm assuming I'm doing something wrong when importing the jar. What exactly is the procedure for getting a jar into a dynamic web project using Eclipse?
Going to answer my own question because I just got it working.
Turns out adding the .jar's to the Java build path is not enough. Tomcat has a seperate classpath for each project, and won't see the classes in the jar unless you dump the jar files into the WEB-INF/lib folder (which Eclipse does not do automatically).
You need to include the jar file for json. This question seems to have been repeated a few times.

Import and run WAR on eclipse

I have a subproject in a Virtual Machine with Ubuntu which I compile with Maven and then run with mvn jetty:run.
Maven also packages it as a war.
All of this works fine and does what is expected.
I am trying to import this WAR from another eclipse in Windows so I have done it by Import -> WAR, thus creating a Web application.
I now want to run it from Eclipse so I have created a new Jetty Server and run my application as Run on Server but I am getting Could not find the main class.
What is the proper way of doing this?
Besides, I have tried deploying the application by putting it in the webapps Tomcat directory . I can see it in the Tomcat GUI and launches the index.html but when I tried to access some of the services it throws No service was found
When deploying, in the Tomcat console I can see runtime NoClassDefFoundErrors.
Is there anything that mvn jetty:run does that the tomcat regular deployment does not? How is it possible that this didn't happen in my Virtual Machine? Shouldn't those classes be all in the WAR?
EDIT:
Here is another hint. When I run the project imported from the WAR in the Ubuntu VM, either with Jetty from eclipse or adding it to the webapps folder it works fine.
It is only hen running it on Windows Host Environment when it fails.
The specific NoClassdefFoundErrors thrown on cmd is the following:
Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/ow2/frascati/explorer/
api/FraSCAtiExplorer
That is one of the modules fo the main project.
If you try to deploy your war in tomcat's webapps folder, and if you miss a class, then you probably miss a jar in your lib folder. It is probably a jar that is supposed to be provided by the web server.
We need to know which class is missing.
Finally all errors have been solved by doing the following:
First I recompiled the WAR which did work this time under Jetty in Windows cmd. I apologize as this must be due to some error I still don't know, probably sharing the wrong WAR with Windows HOST OS from the beginning.
On the other hand, the Eclipse was solved by moving the Jetty folder out of the "Program Files" directory. It seems the old Jetty 6 adapter Eclipse comes with does not recognize spaces in its route to the server.

Java EE6 App + EJB in Glassfish 3.0/Netbeans 6.8?

Has anyone got this configuration working?
Latest Netbeans, latest Glassfish, I created an EJB project, also an EE Application.
The EJB in itself builds & deploys to Glassfish OK.
Now when I want to reference the EJB, I have to add the EJB jar to the EE Application path, if I don't do this the code does not compile.
But, the EJB jar gets packaged in the App jar and as a result when I try to deploy the app to Glassfish it says:
"java.lang.IllegalArgumentException:
Sniffers with type [ejb] and type
[appclient] should not claim the
archive at the same time. Please check
the packaging of your archive"
How do I tell Netbeans NOT TO package the EJB in the App jar? Or is the problem somewhere else?
btw. if I remove the EJB manually from the JAR then the app deploys successfully (with asadmin deploy), but when I try to run it with appclient, I get a NullPointerException.
Surely there must be a solution to this, I thought Netbeans was for web application development after all...
Edit: I found this:
http://forums.netbeans.org/topic23499.html
Which lists exactly the same steps that I did to resolve the problem.
Here is a solution candidate:
https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=183488
Which basically says that Glassfish v3 is seriously broken, and it won't work.
Here is how I got it to work: the EJB and the EE Application MUST BE packaged in an EAR (project), and they MUST BE deployed within the EAR. Deploying the application jar individually WILL NOT WORK (at least not with Netbeans 6.8 + Glassfish v3).
