I'm aware that this is a popular error:

From most solutions, it appears that I misplaced the java class.
However, I've placed the Connect class in WEB-INF/classes/Connection/,
which was what was recommended by most. This is the error I still
received.

I'm sorry, but is there something I'm doing wrong?

So you have a:

WEB-INF/classes/Connection/Connect.class

and Connect.java has:

package Connection;

in the top?
