Right; I should have made it clear that I've been working with Java
professionally for years, i.e. I know what the exception means. (Even
so, classpath problems STILL nip you in the butt if you aren't careful!

Yep.

Verified. (Under $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps etc., actually).

Verified.
Any other ideas? I've edited ActionMapping.createActionInstance() so
that it dumps the "java.class.path" system property to STDOUT
immediately before calling Class.forName(). That class path does NOT
contain the unwarred war file in the tomcat webapps directory (I thought
it would, but maybe Tomcat's classloader doesn't set/use this
property?). Is this good/bad?
Cheers,
