    Hi,

    I am trying to send mail from jsp and I get:
    The type javax.mail.MessagingException cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files

    Do I need to download mail.jar and activation.jar and put them in the classpath?

    Thanks in advance 🙂

    Yes definately, these need to go in your WEB-INF/lib dir and deploy with your project. I had the same problem on a project when I was forgetting to deploy the JavaMail JARs with the app.

    I am afraid it doesn’t work
    I put them in C:\BranemarkEclipseWorkspace\branemark\WebRoot\WEB-INF\lib
    Tried to add that path to the Java build path in Projects settings but it doesnt help
    (Ooh I am so worried about my project dead line on Friday)
    Any other ideas? 🙂

    After you copied the JARs into the WEB-INF/lib dir, MyEclipse should have added them automatically to your Java Build Path > Libraries tab, if it didn’t, go there now and click “Add JAR” then navigate down to your WEB-INF/lib dir and add them.

    NOTE: If you copied the JARs in using an external method, you will need to refresh your project so Eclipse can see the files (right click on root, and do a Refresh).

    Also you need to redeploy your project, make sure to do that.

    Hm something changed 🙂 but the new exception I simply can’t explain (see below)

    In orderAcknowledgement_action.jsp I am calling for MailSender via “import org.branemark.org” which is located in that same package. (see my first message in this forum thread)

    Kalle-Lumi,
    If you are already including the mail and activation JARs, double check that your Server doesn’t already ship these in it’s /lib dir. I understand you have a deadline tommorow, but this problem is a run of the mill missing class issue, I hope you realize this has nothing to do with MyEclipse and I am helping you as a curteosy. You need to do more digging yourself and hunting my friend.

    Yes I realize that Riyad. I appreciate your effort very much. Thanks.
    I will do the rest now. Cheers 🙂
