Hi Deepal, Thanks for your answer. This is what I thought too about the classloader mechanism. However in my case I really have a class conflict and axis2 is using the classes loaded in /web-inf/lib. My problem comes from the geronimo-javamail that doesn't implement all the specification and thus I receive UnsupportedOperationException whereas the sun distribution is located under
myService |_lib I am deploying axis2 under Tomcat.
