I've noticed that in certain cases, jar does put the *.class files in the
file with a NON relative path... This lead to the impossibility for the
java interpretter to find your classes...
Look with a jar -tvf if the pathes are relative or not ... That could be as
stupid than this ! ( I had a problem similar to yours in a java
application, I searched a solution for 4 days !
Also : Did you add your application to the server.xml file ?
