Error description
Steps to recreate: --------------------- 1. Create an EAR, Web and Utility project. Create deployment descriptor (application.xml). 2. Deploy to a Websphere test environment 3. EAR Deployment Assembly page shows IBMUtility jar as 'lib/IBMUtility.jar' (which is correct) 4. Add security role via application.xml and the entry in 3. changes to 'IBMUtility.jar' 5. Deploy on the Test Environment. 6. Invoking servlet throws the following error: "Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.utility.UtilTest at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:434)" 7. Change the Deployment Assembly page entry back to 'lib/IBMUtility.jar' and the servlet is correctly invoked.
