You asked this on SackOverflow as well. I'll repeat my answer. I know I've seen folks use / in component calls before, but I do not believe it is officially supported. You want to use a dot notation path instead, ala
component="lib.components.jobstate" and assure that lib is either a subdirectory or a known CF mapping that points to the lib folder.
