Alfresco not starting after complete restore - urgent!

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

Hi, could anyone plesase help me? It is rather urgent - thank you!

Every night, a cron-task backs up all directories and files under <alf_data> and dumps the alfresco mysql database. The backup-data looks o.k. and the mysql-file also!

After doing a complete restore from that backup - including database-import (with drop tables), Alfresco refuses to start anymore.

Versions: Alfresco 2.1, Tomcat 5.0, Java 1.5.0_10-b03, MySQL 5.0.26 - on Linux 2.6.20.15-ccj49-default

Alfresco isn't starting due to this error:

Caused by:
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'passwordEncoder' defined in class path resource [alfresco/authentication-services-context.xml]: Instantiation of bean failed; nested exception is java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError
Caused by:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError

The passwordEncoder bean cannot find one of it's dependant libraries. Has anything changed in your app-server setup other than trying to restore alfresco?
