Error to start Quartz Plugin on Grails 1.3.7 and Weblogic

[tmcchandra]

I have written an application that uses Quartz Plugin. I tested that it works when running grails run-app as well as war on Tomcat. However when I deploy it to Weblogic, I got the following exception. It seems that the Quartz plugin cannot be found, although I have checked that the class file exist at WEB-INF/classes. Below are the stacktrace:

I saw the same problem when I run the application in WebSphere.

I tried it again in IDE with the WebSphere's JDK, then I found the error of this:

I have a look of the GrailsTaskClassProperty, it seemed that it's correct.

Any other suggestion about this problem? Thanks!
