I'm facing strange problem. I'm getting
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.commons.codec.DecoderException
but commons-codec.jar is in the WEB-INF/lib folder. What's going on?

I had a similar issue, I was specifying the class to load in a config file and had an extra space after the class name. Of course, the error printed that extra space but its invisible obviously so it made it very difficult to debug, as it looked like the class it was trying to find was correct.
