DC is not able to find the Jacob jar file

[Former Member]

Hi! All,

we are working on a request where we need to read one word document from KM and then convert this doc to PDF. I am able to get the doc from the KM but while converting the document to PDF we are getting following error...

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com.jacob.com.Variant

we have used external jar called JACOB.jar for this conversion.

To work with all the external jar files, We have created one external library and created API and SDA public part. We also added this public part in our DC and made the deployment dependency but still we are getting this error.

Although the KM jars are working fine but this JACOB jar is giving me this issue..

Please help.

Hi

As mentioned by you that you have not included NWDI for this project, so instead of using the external library for jar file, add the jar file in the project by selecting project->properties->External libraries->then add you jar in the project. This is to add the jar locally. To make use of external library, you need to follow the steps mentioned by Arun.

hope this will resolve your problem. thanks

Hi Mdsahu,

Please try to re-build your external library and check-in and activate in NWDI.

Then for main DC, goto incative DC and do sync sources and sync used DC.

Then in web dynpro explorer >> select project >> close it and open again might resolve your issue.

Hope it helps
