Ok, let me clarify
- are you building a custom web application? If so, add it to your project
- are you planning on using Explorer? If so, add it to the explorer classpath
- the ldap jar wil NOT be included in the bar file. Bar files have nothing to do with classpath!

In the WEB-INF/classes folder of the Explorer application.

Thanks for the clarification I made the changes. My activiti-standalone-context.xml looks like:
