Ok I am getting to the bottom of this but my hosting provider wish to argue.
They moved me over a month ago from tomcat 5 to 6 and I remember the
installation was not clean because I had some stuff left over from the
tomcat 5 in my new tomcat 6.
I downloaded tomcat 5 and viewed the root directory layout which looks
exactly like tomcat 5 and my current tomcat layout from provider. Clearly I
am meant to have a lib dir in root if this is tomcat 6 and NOT a common/lib

Are you developing on 6.0.x but deploying on 5.?.x (5.0 or 5.5)?
What version is running in production?

I have tried to check why this
exception is thrown in production but not development....
The difference between production snd development server
is:
development) put mysql jar into CATALINA/lib (tomcat
6.0.26)
production) choice of common/lib or share/lib
exception is thrown by hibernate which is wrapping the
exception from realm
