    Add this to your Application constructor:

    ERXPatcher.setClassForName(Main.class, "Main");

    This is a known WO bug. And, if you have a problem with the Session
    class, override the _sessionClass method on your Application class:

    @Override
    protected Class<? extends WOSession> _sessionClass() {
         return Session.class;
    }

    Could you try to run the application with WO 5.4.3 and those fixes?

    Not necessarily.

    You can check using different tools to do the same thing. You can use
    the mvn install:install-file to add the JavaWebObjects.jar to your local
    repository. After that, you can create a simple Maven project using the
    default archetype. Import into Eclipse and enable WOLips on this
    project. Add the Java classes and run. Share the result with us.

    But if I were facing these problems, I'll first try to apply the above
    fixes and run the application with WO 5.4.

    Cheers,

    Henrique
