   You might try extracting the entire jar...

    No ideas off the top of my head.  I always run from the source
distribution, however I recently set someone up with a binary
distribution (I had built locally) on a Mac OS X system.  For what
it's worth we didn't have to do anything funny with classpath, so my
initial suspicion is the brokeness is somehow with your system (so you
might keep looking), I'll try and take a look at it sometime soon on
my system.

    I am only running 10.1, however the system I installed the jar
files on was running 10.2 (I think).

    Hopefully, I'll be able to provide more helpful information later.
