I realize everybody's busy and all, but perhaps a short summary of the problem (a sentence or two) before referring the world to 25 pages of detailed technical description containing _far_ more than we really need to understand the issue is not what we want here. So, perhaps this will help future visitors to this page: >From 4.0.2 JBoss has changed to the Servlet spec classloading model, i.e. it >uses the Tomcat classloader. The first link Scott provided details the hows and whys of the ClassLoader architecture implemented in JBoss. If you have time, read this, it will help you - but get a cup of coffee and spend some time with it, don't just gloss it over. http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=JBossClassLoadingUseCases The second link Scott provided has some specific examples and reading the configurations and their implications triggered my brain far faster than the more exhaustive technical description. Since then, however the first link was helpful when I couldn't reason something out. http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=ClassLoadingConfiguration So, while I digest all this, I've set the UseJBossWebLoader to true (the standard distribution of JBossAS 4.0.2 sets this false) in the jbossweb-tomcat55.sar\META-INF\jboss-service.xml so that the rest of my team can keep going unhindered, and I can figure out what I need to do in terms of changing our deployment structure to be compliant.
