Resolution
This is a known issue caused by class loader mechanism in an underlying component of AFX Server. While the specific scenarios noted in this article have been resolved in RSA Governance & Lifecycle 8.0.0 P02, the java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError errors may still show up intermittently in later patch levels up to and including RSA Governance & Lifecycle 8.0.0 P07. This issue is completely resolved in the following version/patch:
- RSA Governance & Lifecycle 8.0.0 P08
For patch levels prior to P08, follow the workaround (listed below) if this error is observed in the connector logs.
