In this particular case, it was WebSphere‘s classloaders that were the culprit. By default they are set to parent first (contrary to what every j2ee developer presumes it should be), but even after changing them to parent last, there were still a ton of class loading issues. The real trouble was that sometimes it worked and other times it didn‘t. It was never consistent, no matter what combination of parent first/last was used."
