java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.google.web.bindery.requestfactory.server.RequestFactoryServlet

[saurabh saurabh]

I am trying to run an application of RequestFactory on eclipse and I
am getting this exception : java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
com.google.web.bindery.requestfactory.server.RequestFactoryServlet

Although I have checked I have GWT SDK 2.3 in path , it has gwt-
user.jar which contains the above class.
Any Idea how to check this error.

The stack trace is as follow:

Thanks in advance.

Make sure you have the gwt-servlet.jar from GWT SDK 2.3.0 in your WEB-INF/lib folder. Sometimes Eclipse does not update that jar file if you upgrade to GWT 2.3.0. Just copy it from the GWT Plugin folder to you WEB-INF/lib folder.
