[rules-users] java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: [Lorg.drools.rule.Declaration;

[Manan Gosalia]

Hello,
 
I am trying to deserialize rule package from disk. However, I am getting the following exception. I have also included the code that I use to deserialize rule packages. I found only one link on the web that describes this issue after looking around: http://www.mail-archive.com/user@drools.codehaus.org/msg01731.html. But there was no solution or help there. Any idea?
 
I am using drools 3.0.5 and Java 1.5.
