JDOM exception Spring MVC

Question

I'm trying to create RSS feeds for my web site and I'm using the rome 1.0 library. When I run my project I get the following:

org.springframework.web.util.NestedServletException: Handler processing failed; nested exception is java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/jdom/JDOMException
    org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet.doDispatch(DispatcherServlet.java:839)

I search on the internet and they said probably a library is missing.But i put the rome library in the direction:

   WEB-INF/lib

I'm trying to understand the root of the problem and i can't.Can anyone explain to me why this is happening?

Answer 1

Most probably, you're also missing JDOM.
