Steve and Phillip, You are right. The jar file was situated on the spot I put in my classpath. As a leasy programmer, I copied the path from Explorer, and appended the jar file names. Phillip, my apologies for not reading what you said.
I looked again to the locations where my jar files are situated and moved them to the appropriate locations. Now my SOAP client does work. Thanks both for the feedback.

[Virus Checked] He knows it's in the classpath, he wants you to make sure that it's really in that spot in the filesystem. But anyway, activation.jar should be in %TOMCAT_HOME%/common/lib along with the servlet.jar, jndi.jar, and a lot of other things you probably want.

The problem is that you don't have the activation.jar file in your server's classpath. Check to ensure that the jar file is really at "C:\Apache\tomcat\webapps\jetspeed\WEB-INF\lib\". -----Original Message----- From: Michel Bergijk [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 20 February 2002 11:14 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/activation/MimeTypeParseExc eption, with activation.jar in classpath! Fellow SOAP users, I am trying to get SOAP to work on my system (Win2000, Apache, Tomcat 3.3, SOAP 2.2 and Jetspeed 1.3a2). Connecting to SOAP using Internet Exploder works fine, I get the requested "Sorry, I don't speak via HTTP GERT- you have to use HTTP Post to tal to me" response. The problem is testing the client configuration. When I enter the following command in a dos-box, I get the subsequent error message. After that I give you a copy of my classpath setting. Hope anyone has an answer for me. I have searched as far as I could in FAQ and troubleshooting quide. <command> C:\Apache\soap-2_2\lib>java org.apache.soap.server.ServiceManagerClient http://nl-arn-l051682:3128/soap/servlet/rpcrouter list </command> <errormessage> Exception in thread "main" [SOAPException: faultCode=SOAP-ENV:Protocol; msg=Unsupported response content type "text/html", must be: "text/xml".
