I am getting an issue with the remoteapi for google app engine. I have added the location of the remote api in my class path and I get the following error.

Could not initialize class com.google.appengine.tools.remoteapi.RemoteApiInstaller Caused by:

My classpath is like that

<classpath>
    <classpathentry kind="src" path="src"/>
    <classpathentry exported="true" kind="con" path="org.eclipse.jdt.launching.JRE_CONTAINER"/>
    <classpathentry exported="true" kind="con" path="com.google.appengine.eclipse.core.GAE_CONTAINER/appengine-java-sdk-1.4.3"/>
    <classpathentry exported="false" kind="lib" path="/media/files/Kervin/app-engine/appengine-java-sdk-1.4.3/lib/appengine-remote-api.jar"/>
    <classpathentry exported="false" kind="lib" path="/media/files/Kervin/app-engine/appengine-java-sdk-1.4.3/lib/impl/appengine-api.jar"/>
    <classpathentry kind="output" path="war/WEB-INF/classes"/>
</classpath>

{$SDK_ROOT} does not work. I have wasted 4 hours on that, cannot resolve the issue. Any comments would be useful for me.

update: I found the problem, has nothing to do with classpath. It cannot be run in a servlet, but must be run in a java application
