I dont know why this error shows up, i think the MD4 implementation comes with the jdk already or not?
I have read in the forum that some users restart the tomcat until the error dissapear and sometimes this work for me too, but anyone knows the real reason why this error shows up from time to time?


Thanks, Santiago.

The application starts up as usual, and later on it just forgets about the MD4 MessageDigest somehow. This completely baffles me, as I have no idea how a perfectly working application can suddenly unload a previously loaded class and never find it again.

Please, if anyone has a solution or workaround do tell me!

Can you validate your contents of "JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/*.jar"
Do you have any customisations?
