[Contrib: Evaluation System] Missing class deploying Evaluation System on 2.7.0

[Aaron Zeckoski]

Daniel,
This is RSF complaining that it cannot startup the tool correctly
because of a missing class. Most likely you either have a botched
deploy (where the build did not complete and all the files were not
placed into tomcat) or you have duplicate jar files in your tomcat
directory with version mismatches (caused by deploying 2 versions of
the same tool).

Unfortunately, neither of these are specific to the evaluation tool
(they apply to all sakai tools) and also don't really relate to the
specific version being deployed.

My best advice is to restore the server backup of the files in
TOMCAT_HOME components/shared/webapps and restart your server. That
will correct things the fastest and get you back up and running. You
may want to try asking this kind of thing on the sakai production list
as well.

Hope this helps
-AZ
