Hi Jeff & Arnaud Thanks for your quick response. Much appreciate your help.
The class throwing the exception is src/java/au/com/sc/enterprisesms/SmsAppender.java and it extends au.com.sc.logging.AbstractAlarmAppender which is contained in our commons library SCCommons-1.0.jar. au.com.sc.logging.AbstractAlarmAppender in turn extends org.apache.log4j.AppenderSkeleton BTW : if I don't etxtend org.apache.log4j.AppenderSkeleton in our AbstractAlarmAppender then I don't get a ClassDefFoundError. Instead I get an Incompatible type exception, which is understandable.
