Okay, how would I go about diagnosing this? Sorry, I'm still pretty green
with Java.
You'll have to see how that is being compiled. On the actual javac line
(either an ant <javac> call or something else) see if something is
setting bootclasspath. Chances are it's set to something that doesn't
exist. In most cases (especially with java-gcj-compat, IcedTea, or the
Sun VM), it shouldn't be need to be set. I've seen it used often with
the IBM VM which splits up its core classes among multiple jars -- as
opposed to rt.jar which the others use.
HTH,
Andrew
