ClassNotFoundException deploy on Weblogic

I always get the following Error when I am trying to redeploy an EAR on a weblogic 12c cluster with Jenkins and maven:

Target state: redeploy failed on Cluster xxx
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.xml.parsers.ParserConfigurationException

I already added <wls:package-name>javax.xml.*</wls:package-name> in the weblogic-application.xmlfile. The problem started after adding this dependency in maven:

<groupId>org.apache.poi</groupId>
<artifactId>poi-ooxml</artifactId>
<version>3.17</version>

Does anyone have an idea for solving this problem?

I found the solution. Before I had 

<wls:prefer-application-packages>
    <wls:package-name>javax.xml.*</wls:package-name>
</wls:prefer-application-packages>

And i changed to this:

<wls:prefer-application-resources>
    <wls:resource-name>javax.xml.*</wls:resource-name>
</wls:prefer-application-resources>

Now it works. Can anyone explain the exact difference between prefer-application-packagesand prefer-application-resources? The description in official documentation does not really help me.
