You can get odd behavior with 1.4 when running Velocity from a jar
outside of the application classpath. For example, having the
velocity jar in a container while the calling app is in a webapp.
We've fixed this with upcoming release 1.5 (download the beta
http://people.apache.org/dist/jakarta/velocity/v1.5beta1/ ). Now it
searches for all plugins, templates etc in the ThreadContext classpath
first. The result is much more intuitive behavior in these type of
circumstances.

Hi,
I have a project using Velocity 1.4 that I'm working on from Eclipse
3.2.1. In my project path I have a directory called 'lib' which
contains velocity-dep-1.4.jar. I have velocity-dep-1.4.jar added as
an external jar to my project (I've also tried as a non-external jar).
I'm using the following velocity.properties:
resource.loader = classpath
classpath.resource.loader.description = Velocity Classpath Resource Loader
classpath.resource.loader.class =
org.apache.velocity.runtime.resource.loader.ClasspathResourceLoader
When I run init(...) from org.apache.velocity.app.Velocity I get the
following error:
java.lang.Exception: Problem initializing template loader:
org.apache.velocity.runtime.resource.loader.ClasspathResourceLoader
Error is: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:

But here is the strange part. In my main function if I call
Class.forName("org.apache.velocity.runtime.resource.loader.ClasspathResourceLoader")
it works and loads the class. Even if I call Class.forName before
Velocity.init, I still get the error.
I know this could be something pretty simple or fundamental I'm
missing. Any help is greatly appreciated.
