Usually this is because JavaMail can't access the configuration files in mail.jar, possibly because of a security permission problem; see this item for more details. Also, make sure that you haven't extracted the mail.jar contents; you should include the unmodified mail.jar file in the server's CLASSPATH.

Problem is with the JavaMail classes which are given... Kishan A, Aug 9, 2000  [replies:7] Problem is with the JavaMail classes which are given with Weblogic. To get around this problem, download the latest jar files(mail.jar and activation.jar) from here and put them in the classpath used by weblogic. Ensure that these jar files come before weblogicaux.jar file (which contains the JavaMail classes) in the classpath used to start Weblogic. This will solve the problem.

Re: Re: Re: Problem is with the JavaMail classes which are given... Sverker Brundin, Aug 9, 2001  [replies:1] I had this problem on Linux with Weblogic. The application worked fine on my Windows 2000 machine. When I compared the weblogic.jar files on both machines I noticed that the one on Linux missed the file javamail.default.providers. I added this to the weblogic.jar file on linux (has to be under the META-INF directory). I also had to update the mail.jar and activation.jar files and make weblogic to use these instead of the ones in weblogic.jar (by editing the classpath in startWebLogic.sh). Now everything works fine! Is this item helpful?  yes  no     Previous votes   Yes: 1  No: 0

Re: Re: Re: Re: Problem is with the JavaMail classes which are given... Sverker Brundin, Aug 9, 2001 A better solution: Just add mail.jar to bea\wlserver6.0\lib and change the classpath so that mail.jar is loaded before weblogic.jar. (javamail.default.providers is included in mail.jar). Works for me anyway! ;) Is this item helpful?  yes  no     Previous votes   Yes: 0  No: 0
