Tomcat JAASRealm : Getting “Class not added” after starting server

Question

I am using http://blog.frankel.ch/custom-loginmodule-in-tomcat tutorial for tomcat JAASRealm.I have added below in server.xml

Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.JAASRealm" appName="CustomLogin" userClassNames="ch.frankel.blog.loginmodule.PlainUserPrincipal" roleClassNames="ch.frankel.blog.loginmodule.PlainRolePrincipal" />

while starting server i am getting

INFO: Starting Servlet Engine: Apache Tomcat/5.5.27 Jun 8, 2012 1:18:24 PM org.apache.catalina.realm.JAASRealm parseClassNames SEVERE: Class ch.frankel.blog.loginmodule.PlainUserPrincipal not found! Class no t added. Jun 8, 2012 1:18:24 PM org.apache.catalina.realm.JAASRealm parseClassNames SEVERE: Class ch.frankel.blog.loginmodule.PlainRolePrincipal not found! Class no t added.

I am using tomcat 5.5.27. When i call my servlet authentication is working fine but authorization is having some issue and might be due to "Class not added."

Please help....
