BeanCreationException in Spring Framework .WAR deploy to Tomcat 6 on Ubuntu 9.10

I am in the process of switching from a Windows box to Ubunutu and I want to run my own local instance of Tomcat 6. I have installed Tomcat 6 without any basic issues. When I try to deploy a .war file that I had running on the Tomcat 6 instance on my Windows box I am getting the following error....

The class that is not being found is located at /WEB-INF/classes/com/ameren/eam/ldap/LdapDAONovellImpl.class relative to /WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml. I cannot figure out why it cannot find the class? Any ideas would be great.

Assuming you are using the stock Ubuntu Tomcat, everything is locked down by the security manager by default. Suggest you read this page:

http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/security-manager-howto.html

and get a grasp on how it works. You'll need to make changes to $CATALINA_BASE/conf/catalina.policy file, granting access where your webapp is located on the filesystem.
