did you import the class explicitly in your servlet?
eg: (without a package)
import MyClass;
public class MyServlet extends HttpServlet throws ServletEsception
IOException
{
MyClass instanceOfMyClass;
instanceOfMyClass = new MyClass();
etc.
to import the class in the package:
import com.mypackage.MyClass
