r5022 Importer: All files failing to import

[wmoore]

Just built server r5022

Got this when starting...

Then all files get status "failed" but with no popup for error notification and no reports in the "Import Errors" tab.

Also logs don't appear in the usual place (will/omero.importer.log)

I committed a fix for the class not found just now (r5026). I only thought I had committed this morning (it was in my git on necromancer). Will, if you want you can try rebuilding the importer (nothing changed on the server). Also, as a general rule of thumb for the moment as we get the GUI bugs sorted out, please also try the command line importer if you have any problems.

re: logging see #1479. Should be working now. (logs in ~/omero/log/importer.log)
