As it turns out, I have solved my problem. When the BeanUtils.populate()
method was called, it loaded a class that wanted to link to another class
that was not available in the CLASSPATH on the app. server environment (I
have deployed different JAR files). Once I fixed the deployments,
everything was fine.
I guess the real problem here is that the ClassNotFoundException was not
being propagated all the way to outside the Digester. I might go back to
the code and see if I can submit a patch that exposes the root cause of
failures in a better fashion.
