Hi there: I'm not current on HP-UX systems (at least not since 1993), but from the command line you give, it looks like you're using a JDK 1.1.x system. If that is correct, it won't contain java.util.ArrayList, since the collections framework was added in Java 2 (i.e. JDK1.2.2 or higher). You need to upgrade your JDK.
