Related java class has to be in the jvm classpath (e.g. create jar and add it to tomcat's classpath )

Hi martin, i tried before to do a jar(with the deploy of activiti project in eclipse) and i put it into apache-tomcat/webapps/activiti-explorer/WEB-INF/lib but when i restart tomcat i don't find the workflow in activiti-explorer. Did i miss something/wrong folder?
Thanks

Now i uploaded(after the jar) the xml with charge deployment in activiti and now i see the process and it works with the class; is this the correct way? I need to deploy before the jar with class and xml in tomcat and then the xml in activiti-explorer?

Explorer by default works with in memory DB. Deployments and identities are generated on the startup. That's why you have to redeploy.
