It might be a better idea to use your own package com.mystuff.x. You might be running into an issue where java is not finding the file because it assumes the relation between package and jar is 1 to 1. You might also be compiling wrong If your package is com.mystuff that class file should be in a directory structure com/mystuff/whateverUDF.class I am not seeing that from your example.
