Disha, I think you're mistaken. a) because I do exactly what you say does not work and b) because I know Phoenix adds all the jars in SAR-INF/lib to the classpath. It may be that you had some classes loaded from a location further down the ClassLoader hierarchy and these will definitely not be able load classes from SAR-INF/lib.
