Which orion-application.xml are you editing?
The one in applications/yourapplication/META-INF or the one in
application-deployments/yourapplication?
I was having the same problem. I was modifying the
applications/myapplication/META-INF/orion-application.xml but it wasn't
copied to the application-deployments directory automaticaly, so I erased
everything in the application-deployments directory to force Orion to
redoploy the whole app. I also had to copy the
application-deployments/myapplication/principals.xml to
applications/myapplication/META-INF before deleting the mentioned directory
or Orion would complain.
After this, it worked. The problem is that it is Orion specific. I haven't
found a J2EE standard way to share classes between modules.
I tested this only in Windows though.
Good luck.
