[cisco-voip] ipcc script that includes java steps - not working after upgrading from 4.x to 8.5

[ahmer ghazi]

Dear All,

We have recently upgraded from IPCC 4.x to 8.5 and our scripts that included 
java steps are not working. The scripts that do not have java steps are working 
fine.

We have created java steps and packed them into a jar file. These java steps are 
used within CRS Scripts.

These jar files  uploaded into /default/classpath/ and have been moved from left 
pane to right pane in System --> Custom File Configuration. 

While creating a new CRS application and trying to load any of the scripts 
containing java steps we encounter following error

"An error occurred while loading the script [script_name] please check log for 
more details "

We have used jdk 1.6 to compile our java classes. Is this ok?

Upon checking the MADM logs following error were found
9318: Jun 14 21:28:19.593 PKT %MADM-SCRIPT_MGR-3-UNABLE_LOAD_SCRIPT:Unable to

the class path has SteptestBeanInfo.class available

Any pointers that may lead to problem resolution would be highly appreciated.

Thanks,
