This exception occurs when the java class is modified in WebLogic Portal application and you try to publish it, the publishing will go through successfully for the first two times. However, on modifying the class for the third time and trying to publish it, the server will try to undeploy the app subsequently resulting in the above exception. In order to recover from this error, you have to restart your servers.
