We have Maximo Anywhere 761 on iOS for our client. Everything was working OK until yesterday, but since yesterday logs show Noclassfound exception while starting the runtime. And on mobilefirst console, it shows no runtime installed. I have tried reinstalling the runtime number of times but the error persists.
Here is what the logs show:

These class not found errors are usually due to a misconfiguration of the war at deployment. Specifically the classloader options for the war. Was a war file redeployed recently? Take a look through the Mobilefirst docs for classloader configuration relating to parent first or parent last class loading
