Lev, It appears with this issue and even your previous one w/ Stripersist that something isn't set up right w.r.t. your class path / project.
Did you get the Stripersist stuff to work previously? Do you have all of the other related jars included as well for your project e.g. cos.jar? You might want to also at least try 1.5.3 as that is the latest release (just in case there is some other unrelated problem). Do you see other jars in target/webapp/WEB-INF/lib? You wouldn't happen to be dropping the jars in there directly (I strongly doubt you are doing this but some people have done this and have seen problems with the IDE seeing the jars)? Are you getting any compiler errors? If not, what happens if you remove the stripes-1.5.2.jar and rebuild? I am personally using Maven, Eclipse and TestNG so our setups are very different but hopefully answering some of the above will help resolve this issue for you.
