Custom Action within jar

[jackson]

Hello all!
Sorry if chose wrong topic branch.
I have a problem:
I created a custom action and put all files in jar. I copied jar file to webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/lib and restarted server.
Alfresco shown me an error   :

custom-action-messages.properties:

custom-action.title=Add tags to item
custom-action.description=This action adds tags to the matched item

What did I do wrong? Why Alfresco can't found org.alfresco.sample.CustomActionExecuter?
I use alfresco-community-tomcat-3.2
Thank You for any help!

[jackson]

Maybe I need to add jar to alfresco classpath?
Please help me any body!!!

[jackson]

Hello all!
The problem was in my custom-action-context.xml:
I defined in <bean class="org.alfresco.sample.CustomActionExecutEr"> instead <bean class="org.alfresco.sample.CustomActionExecutOr"> :?
So, now it working properly
