I have modified my Java project(Web service) into Dynamic web module. I'm using Tomcat 7.0.59 as server. While starting server it is getting started without any issues. But once if I tried to access the Web service method then I will end up with the error saying that -"Could not initialize class DataLayer.HibernateAdapter java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class DataLayer.HibernateAdapter". Anyone please help me than just marking it a "Duplicate". If code has to be modified, please provide me detail steps. Thanks!!

A NoClassDefFoundError
usually indicates that your class path is not correct. Check if you have the right Hibernate libraries in your class path. e.g. in the project settings, if you are using Eclipse. Right now, you are not including the DataLayer.HibernateAdapter
class correctly, so Tomcat cannot find it.
