NoClassDefFoundException: Accessing Portal Service in Webdynpro

[Former Member]

Hi,

I need to access a Portal Service in the Webdynpro component. I have followed the steps below

1. Created the portal service (updated the key and added a custom method to the interface and implementation class).

2. Deployed the Portal service and configured the same on System Administrator-> System Configuration -> Service Configuration -> Application.

3. Created a webdynpro project.

4. Added Shared reference to the portal service (PORTAL:sap.com/myservice) in the Webdynpro Project.

5. Deployed the webdynpro component.

when i view the iView NoClassDefFoundException of the MyService is displayed.

Please let me know if i have missed any step.

Hi,

to add to the details provided above.. the error is java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError.

Am still unable to successfully get the portal service class runtime reference.

some interesting stuff that i observed is as below

Please provide pointers if anyone has faced such an issue.

Hi,

The Problem was solved succesfully.

The Sharing Reference should be 'sap.com/<portal service>', i had used 'sp.org/<portal service>' as i had developed the portal service with vendor id 'sp.org'.

My Understanding is that the Portal Services are published with provider as 'sap.com'. I made the change by mistake and arrived at the solution.
