Bump. Is there anybody out there? I can't believe I am the only one to have this error and I can't find anything on google for this....
After more testing I am guessing this is some sort of classpath issue - if I run:
String[] names = ImageIO.getReaderFormatNames();
in a standalone JUnit test I get a list of image types. If I run this from within my Glassfish web project it throws a Throwable with:
Could not initialize class javax.imageio.ImageIO
The same web project in JBoss runs fine on the same computer.
Can anybody throw me a lifeline? I don't really want to have to go back to using JBoss just because of this...
Thanks in advance.
