Question

I'm basically trying to implement openId in spring which will allow user to login through goggle and extract their emailId, name and save in data base

After adding openid4java jar, now I'm getting the following exception:

SEVERE: Exception sending context initialized event to listener instance of class

Answer 1

The class org/apache/http/client/ClientProtocolException is part of httpclient jar. I guess you missed to include that.

Answer 2

Add latest httpclient.jar into the classpath. You can download it from here.
