i have all imports:

import com.mongodb.*;
import com.mongodb.client.MongoClients;
import com.mongodb.client.MongoCollection;
import com.mongodb.client.MongoDatabase;
import com.mongodb.BasicDBObject;
import com.mongodb.DB;
import com.mongodb.DBCollection;
import com.mongodb.DBCursor;
import com.mongodb.DBObject;
import com.mongodb.MongoClient;
import com.mongodb.MongoClientURI;
import com.mongodb.MongoCredential;

and the code:

      client = new MongoClient( "localhost" , 27017 );
      client.close();

Adding jars to the Classpath is enough to compile against their contents, but that doesn't tell the server tools that you want them deployed when you launch a server. Check your project's Deployment Assembly property page.
