I think you're missing a Class-Path attribute.
Class-Path: The value of this attribute specifies the relative URLs of 
the extensions or libraries that this application or extension needs. 
URLs are separated by one or more spaces. The application or extension 
class loader uses the value of this attribute to construct its internal 
search path.
