Still no success. As Ashish suggested, I updated the MANIFEST.MF file to
include a class-path entry that included all the POI jar files. My MF
file looked like this:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Class-Path: poi-3.6-20091214.jar; poi-contrib-3.6-20091214.jar;
poi-examples-3.6-20091214.jar;
poi-ooxml-3.6-20091214.jar; poi-ooxml-schemas-3.6-20091214.jar;
poi-scratchpad-3.6-20091214.jar
(I added the spaces and newline to format the e-mail, the actual file
doesn't have any spaces or newlines).
When I activate my HTML page, it still reports the same error:
java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
org/apache/poi/xssf/usermodel/XSSFWorkbook
It really shouldn't be this much trouble to use POI should it?
