Can you show that part of your code? Perhaps you can do smthng like this:
// Perhaps this one is read from a configuration somehow
String factoryClassName =
"com.evermind.server.ApplicationClientInitialContextFactory";
InitialContextFactory factory;
try {
Class c = Class.forName(factoryClassName);
} catch (Throwable t) {
System.err.println("Unable to load initial context factory " + factoryClassName
".");
t.printStackTrace();
}

Well, perhaps you're referencing the driver from your code, and perhaps you
should try loading the class explicitly with the Class.forName() call?
HTH, just my $ 0.02.
