[Php-java-bridge-users] NoSuchMethodError & NoClassDefFoundError

[<php...@li...>]

Hi,

I'm trying to upgrade JavaBridge in existing web apps (though this fact 
may not be a criteria for the problems arising).

I've downloaded the current 4.2, resp. 3.2, version, extracted 
JavaBridge.war and copied its contents into the web app. Aditionally, I 
copied JavaBridge.jar to the CLASSPATH (jre/lib/ext in this case, which 
is the only CLASSPATH).
There is no JavaBridge.jar in Tomcat's /common/lib, and JavaBridge.jar 
in ext and in /WEB-INF/lib are equal.

OK, with 4.2, I'm getting the follow error:

2007-08-15 17:55:03,257 [http-80-Processor23] ERROR 
php.java.bridge.JavaBridge - JavaBridge exception

    ...

Looking at the sources, the error occurs in PhpJavaServlet.java, in line 
212. And right, ContextServer.java contains a different signature of 
getCredentials().

With 3.2, there is another error: (BTW, JavaBridge.war, when deployed, 
throws the same error on load.)

Looking at the classes contained by JavaBridge.jar, there is no such 
class, indeed.

- How should I proceed?

Thanks
